Default What is a wire antenna's impedance?

Thank you both above. But as I mentioned, I only wanted to know the
impedance of a simple, plain wire. No dipole, no complex antenna
structure. Please help.


Very dependent on length, distance from groundplane, diameter
and skin resistance of the material.

The best answer is knowing it's only a wire and no defined information
more than that is: 42!
