The navy would not change to a antenna that was not resonant.

The antenna is resonant.

Input impedance: 84.8 + j 1.3 *at 7.25 MHz.

Not that I regard resonance as having any significance other than
the input impedance is resistive.

Correct, as long as it is resistive. So what angle did the Navy tip
their antennas to achieve maximum gain?
They were not satisfied with the vertical antennas performance and
wanted something better.
So the question is what needs to be done to provide better performance
ie gain?
Yup they experimented in each and every way and fell upon.....what?
Even tho they cannot explain it.
David can tell you in less than 5 minuits which is the time the
program requires to provide the answer.
