HVDC distribution systems over long distances are not that uncommon.

" Due to the space charge formed around the conductors, an HVDC system may
have about half the loss per unit length of a high voltage AC system
carrying the same amount of power. With monopolar transmission the choice of
polarity of the energized conductor leads to a degree of control over the
corona discharge. *In particular, the polarity of the ions emitted can be
controlled, which may have an environmental impact on particulate
condensation. (particles of different polarities have a different mean-free
path.) Negative coronas generate considerably more ozone than positive
coronas,"

But what it works in your antennas.

your antennas do not use DC.
