Has anyone ever seen or tryed DC shorting a screwdriver type antenna?
The parallel coil at the base, active on the lower bands to raise
the feedpoint resistance, provides a DC short automatically.

Hmm, Ok then maybe i'm not asking the correct question. I was thinking if
there is a way to make a screwdriver antenna appear or act like a "loop"
style antenna in which the radiator is connected to ground creating a "dc
short"
At my previous residense I had a large loop antenna and i was always
impressed with how low of noise level it had in comparison to other
antennas.
