I just completed a experiment with my antenna optimizer program where

it was close to.003 ohms resistive
What this means is the current flow is right at the surface where
there is no skin depth
penetration involved and thus close to zero material resistance. This
means that the total resistance is the radiation resistance of the
surface encapsulating particles. The radiation was 35 db in a shape
close to that of a sphere. (when the resistance of the aluminum dipole
went to zero the radiation went to a perfect sphere) Efficiency was
stated at 100% efficient pointing to 100% accountability for all
forces involved and where losses were at a minimum.

Where is Lurch when I need him.... Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr...
Once again , delusions of grandeur induced by misuse of antenna
modeling programs. :/
