Yes. As I recall, Art claimed to have discovered something like the
"gamma match" shown on page 26-9 of my 20th edition of the ARRL Antenna
Book. Of course it`s been around nearly forever.

Art claimed radiation from the small gamma-loop strongly reinforced the
dipole`s desired radiation. Art rejected the contention that radiation
from the small loop is only directed in the plane of the loop so
therefore only helps in the directions of the zenith and the earth and
gives no help in the horizontal plane perpendicular to the dipole.and
broadside to the small loop.

If Art patented the idea that the matching system radiated to
significantly enhance the dipole`s desired radiation, he should not
expect riches in royalties.

Yes I was granted a patent under " a constant impedance antenna
system"
and it is a matter of record despite what you have stated. And that is
all I wanted,.

Art you are still under the delusion that if you get a patent it
means your idea is valid.
No, it just means it was your idea. At one time you had to give some
proof of the validity of the concept but this is no longer true. If
you want to get a patent on a Star Trek type "transporter" or "warp
drive" go ahead, you can probably get one. You can even patent
something that already has a patent. The patent office will not keep
you from screwing up.
