they use the feedline as a radiator. The feedline
is just terminated with a huge capacity. There is no magic to this -
it is just bad engineering. Good morning RFI!


...and yet hams think the G5RV is a wonder antenna:-)

Radiating feedline is not bad engineering. Its one of many design options,
applicable in some circumstances.
