"End-Fed Center-Fed Dipole (AKA Coaxial Vertical Dipole)

Really, that description is correct. Primarily constructed with coaxial
cable the one half wave vertical dipole is fed from its bottom but the
coax
shield is left in place only up to near the center point (about ? wave
but
the exact end point for terminating the shielding is determined by
tuning)
which becomes the actual "feed-point" ergo, the description. The center
conductor continues up for about ? wave past the point of termination of
the
shield." From:

Is it dipole, monopole or "dipole"?


The antenna in question is a monopole with a complex feed system.


Are all dipoles the monopoles?
