Hello everyone. My question is if it's ok to paint a DIY antenna or not. I'll be putting it up on the roof (roughly 40-45 feet) and I want it to last as long as possible as my roof has a steep pitch and I don't want to climb it unnecassarily. I'm building a Double Bay Gray Hoverman. I'm making it from 1/2" UV resistant PVC conduit, but not all the parts are UV resistant (tees, elbows, elements, etc.) Also, any idea how long DIY antennas typically last? Thanks for all the help everyone. Researching through the forums has been extremely helpful for nearly every question I've had.
