Ted,
Probably no caps on the elements, they will droop down and any moisture will
drain. As for the boom, mine is open, but guess u cud always put some stainless
steel "wool" to keep birds out! I did that at my previous QTH when I had a 3"
dia boom. The Tennadyne I have now has two small square boom assemblies, one on
top of the other, so I didn't bother.
Enjoy the new antenna!
