Default folded dipoles

Many declarative sentences, Cecil, but you're wrong, as usual.
When are you going to actually do some meaningful experiments to
find out whether you're right or not?


Where are your experiments that prove you right and me
wrong? Where are your references for such?

All the experimentation has already been done by others,
Tom, and pretty well documented in publications available
on the web including a host of governmental and university
publications so I would be wasting my time. It is possible
that I misunderstood something but impossible that there
has not been enough experimentation. Wishing that all static
is caused by ionization of the air is just a pipe dream. There
would probably never be enough precipitation static on a
well-designed folded dipole to result in ionization of the air
but certainly enough to hear in a receiver.
