Not me but Wiki:
"The monopole antenna was invented ...
For radioamateurs the one wire is enough. The dipole is useless for them.
They want to "transmit for longer distances".

Hello old chap.

There is surely no point in posting quotations from Wiki if you do not
understand them.
The comment about dipoles being useless for amateurs is definitely
incorrect. The dipole is a very popular design of antenna for amateur
radio
use.


Do you mean the dipoles fed by the coax or by the ladder line?
