Default nec simulation - unexpected result ??

In the distant past, when I had a dinosaur for a pet, resonance
was defined as the frequency at which the impedance is a purely
low impedance. The frequency at which the impedance was a
purely high resistance was known at the anti-resonant point,
the exact opposite of resonance, and indeed, it was the exact
other side of the SWR circle on a Smith Chart.
