In your literature is wrote that "monopole with the counterpoise works
like the dipole". But in your literature the dipole means the mechanical
symmetry.


Hello Szczepan. Which amateur radio book said that "dipole" means the
"mechanical symmetry", please?


"A dipole antenna is a radio antenna that can be made of a simple wire, with
a center-fed driven element. It consists of two metal conductors of rod or
wire, oriented parallel and collinear with each other (in line with each
other), with a small space between them. "

As you see Your dipoles are mechanically symmetrical.
It can works as the monopole or as the dipole. It depends on electrical
connections.
