The quick silver one is lexan, not wood and is supposed to be a lot better. 
I can send you a direct link to the product if you email me off list, I 
couldn't find them either but asked him where they were. I'm moving probably 
to an apartment soon so had to look in to alternative ways to run coax since 
I'll make sure I can setup at least a wire outside, I don't care much about 
uhf/vhf but an HF wire is a deal maker or breaker if I can't I don't move 
there. I'll keep it low profile, which is one of the many reasons I was 
looking in to that panel, let me know if you want to get the direct link to 
the page it's on, I'll send it to you.
