... question from my side: why build any shelters for loading coils at all?

I have my loading coils in the open air since early 1998, no humidity
problems so far (fingers crossed). All coils are wound on 'plastic' tubing.
But I have masses of 'alive' wood surrounding the antenna, making a large
contribution to my +/- 120 Ohm loss resistance. So I can conform the wood
is lossy on LF.
