And now, a question for the vets: I know that I don't -really- have a
longwire antenna, by definition. But what -do- I have? I've been waiting
for
someone to jump on me for calling it that, but it seems to be the
acceptable
label despite its inaccuracy.


You're right, technically not a longwire at 75 feet, the 'correct'
term would be Random Wire.

Ah, there we go. Thank you! I knew that if I stuck around here long enough
I'd learn something about radios, in spite of all of the off-topic threads!
