I respectfully have to disagree with you. I have used this in my jets and pattern planes for years without problems. My receivers sit on the plate and have experienced no loss of signals. I do, however, place my satellite receivers on the side of the fiberglass or balsa fuse. Additionally, many of the new composite pattern planes have CF firewalls, CF servo mounting trays, etc.
