Oh, the irony!


Now, whereas it cannot be disputed that quantised objects such as
atoms and sub-atominc particles emit quantised radiation, and all the
experimental evidence and theories are very much based upon the
observance of such atomic and sub-atomic objects and not upon large
scale objects such as antennae, the energy that gets radiated from
antennae does not come from intra-atomic activity, but the compression
of electrons in a current
, compressing against their natural mutual repulsion.

Nonsense. The radiation in this case is produced when charges are
accelerated. It's as simple as that.


What is the shape of the supposed RF photon?

How many cycles make up the RF photon?

Wy cannot the strident infantile abusers of the RF photonists answer
such questions?

Because they are bogus, meaningless questions arising from a failure to
understand the matter at hand. But you've been told this already. So much
for your "open mind".


Consider a single spike of static which generates wide-band noise over
a large spectrum.
As any photon is only at a single frequency,

Where did you get that ludicrous notion from? A single frequency of what?

how many of the supposed
RF photons
(each with a fixed defined energy of hv) have been created by that
spike?

An infinite number?

Strawman approaching!

If so the RF photonists among you must therefore
hold that any
spike of static, whether from a lightning strike, or an unsuppressed
spark plug must contain
infinite energy.

How many photons are there in a flash of white light? Now scale your
answer for the much longer wavelength at RF.


This alone shows that RF radiation, when nor created by atomic
processes, is continuous and
not quantised.

It shows nothing of the sort.
