Sure. The subjective technical term for using a VHF antenna inside a steel
tube fuselage is "not worth a ****".

On the related subject of mounting an
antenna inside a steel tube fuselage, have you done any
similar tests or do you know of any? That would seem to be
a much different situation, with long conductive frame
members, but real world tests can be surprising. Any
results or comments you want to share?
