Default A short 160M antenna

So, it appears that doubling the length of a short antenna captures about
3.6 times the signal.


And, therefore, by the reciprocity characteristic, the short antenna is
an inefficient radiator.


So, can I expect an apology from all the Yanks who badmouthed me
in order to try to hide their own ignorance on the matter?
