I tried simulating a Slim Jim in EZNEC and did NOT get the expected "aim at
the horizon" low-angle radiation simulated pattern. I got instead the
standard "hole in the donut" that you would expect from a vertical dipole
and a rather fat true donut shape rather than the expected pancake pattern.

I'm not at all sure how to connect a "voltage source" driver at the tap
point without being able to simulate the ground of that voltage source
tapped up from the bottom end as well.

Thoughts?
