Free space? As a data point, I pushed EZNEC to the limit on 40m
with a 9000 ft. dipole. Resonant feedpoint resistance at
7.152 is 390 ohms. Anti-resonant feedpoint resistance at 7.092
is 1980 ohms. It appears that EZNEC would converge to something
in between those two values for an infinite dipole in free space.
I ran into the segment limit at 66 wavelengths.
