It can just as easily go on a big cork or stopper, or a disk cut out of a HDPE cutting board. Googling "display dome" will show you copious choices. or somewhere like "glassdomes.com" Of course, if you have a supply of canning jars or babyfood jars, then you can use those. Nothing says the jar has to be mounted with the axis vertical. You could do it sideways (like a ship in a bottle) to help solve the "rain in the punt" problem. _______________________________________________ time-nuts mailing list -- time-nuts@febo.com To unsubscribe, go to https://www.febo.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/time-nuts and follow the instructions there.

Actually I used a home canning type wide mouth mason jar. I thought about a fish bowl but there are not threads for mounting. Then I got smarter and spend $29 on a real timing antenna and it''s been on the roof for years. The "jar on a stick" works but has very poor WAF.
