Ok, I give up. I've got a dipole in free space. I connect one end of the
load resistance to one end of the dipole. What do I connect the other
end of the resistor to?

How about a nice terminated rhombic?

If that's too tough, how about just a dipole a quarter wavelength above
ground?

How about an inv-V dipole 0.177 wavelength above ground?
