The antenna is unbalanced but without a connected
ground system such that current will flow on the
outside of the coax braid.

Following in its odd style is one of the many references in the DLM patent
to the need/use of a "connected ground system" for it.

QUOTE In this embodiment the antenna is shown grounded to earth through a
grounding rod, ground wire and connected to the base of the antenna and
electrically connected using a ground clamp. Radial wires extending above
ground or buried in the ground are electrically connected to the antenna
using the ground wire and the ground rod and extend from the antenna base
for a uniform distance but not limited to any specific length. END QUOTE.

So another one of your cherished beliefs is shown to be untrue.
