By the way, on my page

I describe how to make an antenna even smaller than that made by the
threads initial poster
I also supplied SWR measurements for frequencies between 2 and 100
Mhz. The wire I used was a random length and the results should be
duplicated with a couple of wavelengths for the lowest frequency.
Isolated spot frequencies can be attained by the use of a jumper. Such
antennas can also be made in small sheet form and other configurations
Wire used for such antennas do not have to be made of wire with
mechanical thickness since no external mechanical stresses are
involved.
Nuff said. I'm gone !

My point can be summed up quickly; where is this antenna being used in
the commercial sector--it has certainly been around to have gained
interest there, if deserved.

That is all folks ...

Because they don't know about it nor does the ARRL
Ham radio is not what it used to be. As the older ones die off the cb
talking heads have gained the majority.
That is why you get the same answers on antennas on this group as you
would get from any woman doing her shopping at the mall.
CB hams are only interested in gain or how loud their heckling voices
can be heard over the voices of others but antennas are a lot more
than that for those really interesred in a hobby rather than bar room
talk. Gates left before he graduated in college to make a lot of money
WRT did the same thing by not graduating from high school yet the
group here give his heckling space because they have nothing better to
offer. Not one person has given good reason why the quoted antenna
cannot work as stated, not one. By mathematics or actually making one
since heckling is regarded as a suitable replacement for true
knowledge now in the present hobby of ham radio. Ham radio is no
longer on the cusp of invention and the world has moved on without
them.Would you allow your children to listen to ham radio at will or
look at porn on the computer? The words and conduct now are the same
and civility has flown out of the window!
