Dave, I have often wondered how a vertical would play if
mounted on top of a metal roof. Could the metal roof
panels be used for the 'ground' instead of radials? It
would seem that the roof would actually be better than
radials. Any ideas? I have a metal roof over my shack ..

high, from ground level..
