You do not want a 3/4 hole!

You want a 3/16" slit 3/4 of an inch long.

I guess that my question would be exactly what difference does it make?  A 3/4 inch PVC pipe cap will cover a 3/4 hole as easily as it will cover a 3/16 by 3/4 inch slot and being that the hole is being drilled in a flat panel in the middle of the top of the fixture, I don't think that the single large hole would cause any structural issues. I understand that a hole is not required and if the opening were exposed there would be no discussion as a slot sized to the antenna would look far more professional than a large hole of the same width as the slot but since the opening is going to be covered with a PVC cap that will not be removable, I just don't see the need for the extra work.  Not everyone has the same skill level with tools and while some may find it easy creating a slot in the case others will not.  Drilling a single hole is something that just about anyone can do.  If there is a reason that a hole will not work then please let me know so that I can get that idea out of my head and set up to start making slots and thank you for all of the great stuff that you have designed so far.  You have open up a whole new world for me with affordable light automation.
