actully, this concept has been used for quite a few years in the aerospace industry
 
This might be a government program.

Sounds covert. I need covert, I live in an apartment. I could spray the walls with it, but tuning the SWRs might be a bitch!
 
Next local Key Down event, I'm going to get some of this stuff, and spray the whole roof of my Suburban with it and just blow everyone out of the water!

I guess to get the most forward gain, you would paint a arrow on the roof pointed towards the hood...:pop:

I don't see a problem with SWR tuning. This spray on stuff could make it simpler than our current technique. Let's say I want a J-pole design in the attic. I just spray a J-pole dimensioned shape on the nearest rafter or vertical panel. SWR tuning not quite right? A one second squirt adds another inch or two.
 
old news.
made a jpole stencil and sprayed one on a fiberglass wall panel in an rv.
used copper rfi shielding paint.did dipoles too.totaly hidden antenna great for tracking down dorkers without tipping them off that the thing has a rig in it.
so if anyone buys a 99 bounder mh and finds rg58 coiled up under the sofa give it a try!

    Incoming Region Produces X3 Solar Flare
    May 15, 2024 @ 14:55 UTC
    Another major solar flare, but this time from an active region just beginning to turn into view off the east limb. It is possible that the group responsible is old AR 3654 from the previous rotation. The latest flare, an X2.99 event just peaked at 14:38 UTC (May 15). Stay tuned
