"So according to you, as an example, a resonate 14 or 1/2 monopole will extract more energy than a non-resonate 5/8 monopole." A 5/8-wavelength monopole has a directive gain over a 1/4-wavelength self-resonant monopole. However, the 5/8-wavelength monopole must be resonated externally to remove its reactance to take advantage of its extended length so that the volts per meter it is exposed to can make a large current flow in the antenna.
