Hi David,
No, no ground plane. Don’t really have a lot of room for that in the window.
Out of curiosity, how large of an impact have you found with a ground plane?
Btw, I love the pan!

============================
Yes, Denny, choosing the baking tray (IIRC) was fun - I wanted as large a
flat area as I could reasonably get, but it has to be magnetic. I don't
recall what I took into the shop to test with!
Unfortunately I didn't make any specific measurements with and without the
ground plane, but I did see a noticeable increase in SNR. Even a small e.g.
tobacco tin may help.
Cheers,
David
