Hi Dave,

All the housing are plastic.

Hi Tom,

I noticed that you don't show any sort of housing with your loop tuning
caps in them on your page, however one photo shows the top of a plastic
housing with a cap mounted to it.

When you do place a tuning cap in a housing, on a loop, do you use a
metal or plastic chassis?  Does a metal housing distort the pattern too
badly, have you done testing on this?

I am in the process of building yet another loop, and the thought of
metal vs., plastic has never occurred to me until I saw that photo you
have showing the plastic cover mounting a tuning cap.
