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 is more than an interesting idea, it is what is happening.
Additionally the tower is a radiator along with the coax. The tower
probably radiates more than the coax. The "antenna" is really a matching
network to the tower.
