Since all the strands are connected together, the entire things just
looks like one flat piece of metal. Snake oil spin.
And what is the MFJ259B measuring when it denotes a resonant frequency?

And I DO own a 259B, so let's go toe to toe on the measurements bright boy.

Then you should be able to duplicate Art's results without knowing the
parameters of Art's test. Sez who? Well Art of course! HI

I own a MFJ-259B and find it to be an useful tool. The device's OOB
accuracy was found to be lacking but after re-calibration all was FB.
Perhaps instrumentation errors are helping to 'confirm' Art's
contradictory theories and hazy explanations.
