Well of course not!! To work at UHF, you would have to tint it with some
purplish dye first. You should know that??

I wonder I it would work as good at UHF frequencies?

All this talk of towers and grounding...
All you need to improve your signal was found on the Rochester version of
Crags
list....
For sale one tube of rare cb antenna grease. This stuff came out in the
60's. It was developed by the Department of Defense for the armed
services. It was mainly used in the field on hand held units, tripling
their range. It is a closely guarded secret by technicians & HAM's.
When the FCC found out some amateur radio supply outlets had purchased a
sizable quantity of the RF grease through US Army & Navy surplus
auctions, the FCC outlawed the sale of it in the US. What the RF grease
does is make your signal slide out your antenna faster and with less
friction. Because of this you get less RF friction (hysteresis). The
results are: lower SWR readings & increased power handling, the
faster moving RF signal builds up a tremendous RF inertia, resulting a
higher DB gain on your signal, (like a slingshot effect throwing a
faster & larger signal) ( typically 3.8-4.7 db gain) and 4x the
power handling capacity. Modulation & SSB benefit a whopping 6 db
gain. over an untreated isotropic dipole antenna lasts for about 6
mounths then, just wipe off any old grease and put some new on. This is
probably the best kept secret in amateur radio! The guys at the
shoot-out's wont tell you about this amazing secret! Triple the RF
output of a 200 watt box to 600 ERP, etc... (effective radiated power)
This RF grease also causes a very cool side efect if you feed over 100
watts into a treated antenna you will see a cool purpleish-pink halo
glowing around your antenna on key up at night, pulsating with your
modulation ! (not to cool for the military, this is why they stopped
using it!) For now all I have is one 16oz. tube. $250.00 FIRM
