"The consensus is that the coax is the actual radiator;
the "antenna" is the matching network.
The longer the coax, the better it works. "
So the IsoTron Antenna :
Efffectively puts the Antenna Tuner at the Far-End of the
Coax Cable and makes the Coax Cable the Antenna
Element {Radiator} between the Transmitter and the
IsoTron {Resonant Load = Terminator} Antenna.
interesting idea - iane ~ RHF

.It would be if the designer had intended that. The problem is that you
now have a radiator inside the shack and an antenna whose characteristics
are a function of how the "feedline" is deployed.
