A little logic should prove that electrons don't
leave the antenna. Assume that electrons radiate
from the antenna. If so, they would have to be
replaced. Replacing electrons would require a
*DC current conponent* imposed upon the RF. Does a
DC component exist? Don't most transmitters block
DC from reaching the antenna?
