Not in the "grand scheme of things", perhaps, but a resonant antenna
extracts more energy when swept by a traveling wave than an
off-resonance conductor does at the same distance from the transmitter.

So according to you, as an example, a resonate 1/4 or 1/2 monopole
will extract more energy than a non-resonate 5/8-wave monopole.

Enjoy your dreams, I'm QRT
