Default Knots in antenna wire?

I have seen commercial wire antennas where the insulated wire is tied
to the center insulator with a clinch knot having three turns and then
the end of the wire (protruding from the knot) is stripped and
connected to the feedline.

Does forcing the RF current though a knot at the feedpoint have a
significant affect on propagation?
