Do antennas radiate photons?

Yep, antennas radiate photons.

There is not any proof that RF behaves differently than light.
Things are already quite complicated without it :-)
One of my not so great ideas was to devise a contraption that would
let me "see" RF. It certainly would make troubleshooting RF devices
much easier. Essentially, it would be a human eye analog implimented
with RF components. According to theory, if it works for light, it
should also work for RF. At the time, I was working at about 1GHz.
Light is about 400 THz. So, all I need is an eyeball that's 400,000
times larger than the human eye. I'll give myself a -1 for the idea.
I think they have that. They are called radio telescope arrays.
