Now, that is just plain silly! *How are you going to Bismuth plate an

So I wrote that antennas are made of metalic conductors, salt waters and
live tree. It seem that material is not important.
The key factor is the oscillating, nonsymetrical flow of electrons. We need
the tank, the pump and an antenna. May be with or without Bismuth plate.

The implication by many is that the radiation particles or electrons
are extracted from the actual radiator.
Where did this notion come from and what is its justification?
