Very interesting. You might make it lighter with PVC pipe instead of the wood.

In a good wind you could also use it as a box kite. ;^)

You could also try using a coarser heavier wire screening/fencing and form it in a tube shape. That would let more of the wind through creating a lighter load when the wind blows. Heavier wire would also retain its form and the wooden frame would not be needed.

Interesting application (antenna) of a faraday cage.

Thanks for all the suggestions. I'm looking into all of them.

I have a second version of my anti-ghosting antenna. It 's the link on the bottom of the page.

Now that's ingenuity. I love it! Had a thought, you could also use the handles to tie ropes to for a remote aiming system..........So how's the picture quality now compared to before?

Quality is the same, but I do have more gain with the can.
