Antenna physical size

Eventually
everyone will be able to choose and model his own antenna based on the
characteristics one wants, but without the cumbersome dimensions,
without significant bandwith limitations, without major efficiency
compromises.

Hi Robert,

50 years ago they said Electricity would be so easy to produce they
would pay us to use it. They ignored Hiroshima and discovered
Chernobyl.

40 years ago they said DNA and genetics would allow us to design our
own babies. They ignored Thalidomide and discovered Dolly the sheep
that died before her time.

30 years ago they invented modeling software that would allow us to
create the Gaussian dipole (or whatever) and discovered every dipole
that came before it performed better.

Nearly 20 years ago Johnny Carson retired and we are still getting
jokes.

Not nearly 10 years ago with the Dow at 11658 and a budget surplus at
230 billion, the Republicans promised prosperity was around the corner
and their voters are now living in cardboard boxes with the Dow at
12176 and the national debt up 50%.

Scaling of antennas is clearly
possible, despite of what the Chu-Harrington limit states ( or to be
fair, by applying them in a new way ).

But you don't know how, and have never seen one either.
