Hope for what? Magic? The tradeoffs inherent in electrically small
antennas are well known, and each design requires intelligent
application of that knowledge to come up with an antenna that's
acceptable in size, form factor, and performance for that particular
use. Many, many antennas now being designed and ones in common use are
electrically small -- the ones in your car's remote control key fob,
your Bluetooth USB dongle or cell phone earpiece, and embedded in RFID
tags are just a very few examples. With the increasing use of wireless
devices, the need for electrically small antennas has grown rapidly, and
there are a number of good texts devoted to that specific topic. These
texts contain a good treatment of the tradeoffs involved and useful
ideas for designs using currently available technology and materials,
but no new fundamental theory.

Advancements in the art will continue to come with intelligent and
clever application of established theory by people who understand the
theory and how to apply it, not from tinkerers who lack this knowledge
and conjure their miracles by vague hand-waving and bad measurement.

I am going to tell you, once and for all. I have tolerated your limited
mind, I have overlooked your shortcomings, I have treated you like you
belong ... you do not.

You have repaid this with being obnoxious, ignorant, short on anything
relevant to the arguments, discussions, and debates here ...

You fall one brick short of a full load ... if you were going to
demonstrate better, you would have done so by now ...

I really refrain from this, and save it to the last ... however, you
have squarely requested it ... and I have granted it.

Be damned with what you have invoked ... and may it fulfill what you
seem to desire ... if I am the only one to recognize this, then so be it.

However, now that I have expounded and embraced my utter disgust and

one of the most ignorant men I have had the displeasure of encountering
in this hobby!

You stand as very notable, but to degrees most men find despicable. You
have, indeed, made yourself notable to me; I can only wish to fathom
why you would have chosen such dark, questionable and detestable means
to do so?

If your "good ole' buddies have a word to say for you, now would be the

YOUR IGNORANCE DOES NOT PASS MY SCRUTINY ... but then, that is what you

It is a curious thread. You have made any number of very clear
propositions offering testable statements, and you can't supply the
least scintilla of evidence, example, case, illustration, instance,
representative, sample, or specimen in their support. Well maybe a
cupful of specimen where, no doubt, this last comment of yours runneth

If the USAF crew all read the same books before their journey then
they all had the same experience many times over.
What it takes is imagination and the will to deviate from the well
trodden paths where different experiences and views
empower men to challenge the old based on experiences that others have
not travelled. It then takes a generation
for those that failed and snarled at the new to leave the scene so
that later research turns up the more recent past
and thus reinvents the wheel. Einstien left classical physics because
he could not find the key for the Universal laws
and probed into the science of relativity purely to gain a different
perspective or view of the former problem which required
a move away from the well trodden path to get the answer.
Unfortunately he died before finding the answer but was on the right
track
in not assuming that all was known because of the high number of
failures before him who all trod the same path and arrived at the same
destination.

John, do me a favour and re read Richards last 5 or 10 posts and then
ask yourself
Did Richard provide any thing to you that was usefull? He will only
supply querstions
so that he can belittle those that try to answer. He himself will
never supply anything
that is seen as profitablke to this group at large. If the last 12
postings doesn't satisfy
you then look at the last 25, or 50 postings. There is no likely
hood that he is going to change
after spending several years taking this tack to annoy people on this
group. So why respond to him
which only satisfies his quest of being belonged as a person some
where in this World.
He is lonely, he is without friends and just an obnoxious person
seeking a conversation with anybody
and I mean anybody that he can rope in and annoy just to extend the
length of the conversation so he has a sense of belonging.
So John look at his past postings and ask yourself is any conversation
with Richard worth while and then take the appropiate action.
He can then turn to KB9RQZ to satisfy his needs without disruption to
the rest of us and where he will find a true friend with similar
tastes.

John could well be correct as certain assumed conditions(assumptions)
were set over and above Maxwell's laws
prior to the program being computed !
These programs are generally used to determine the functions of planar
antennas and the like that do NOT meet
the conditions implied in Maxwell's laws. One condition implicite in
all the laws of the masters is that
Newtons laws with respect to equilibrium must be observed, which rules
out such arrangements as the Yagi.
This is not to say that Maxwell's laws are used incorrectly in antenna
programs,only that it is usually used outside
its intended usage where acountability of all vectors are not
accounted for, which thus provides aproximations
Close enough for horse shoes and lemmings but not for the pursuit of
science along the lines intended by Newton and others.

Well, let me see here, I mean, I want to give you all due respect, and
all that ...

Have you presented material since the 1960's for us to preview ... no,
no it seems you have not ...

Have you presented any pertinent data which would catch ones interest,
no, no you have not ...

Have you presented any antennas which cannot be found in 1960's or prior
articles, papers or books, no, no you have not ...

Have, you presented ANY areas which have not been gone over 1000 times
.... no, no you have not ....

Have you been a pain in the arse, demanding attention to your
mutterings, claiming importance to your mutterings, well, yes, yes you
have done that ... YOU HAVE DONE THAT, UNFORTUANTLY!

Other than the bedrock of antenna literature, what have you to offer?
What do you have to say that we cannot find in a book by one of your
favorite gurus? What new have you offered, since, like say 1960?

Richard, if you are going to invoke minds such as Cecils', such as
Roys', such as Walters', such as many would were writing articles when I
was an adolescent--could you not reach down and offer just a bit more
.... I mean, if it is within your reach ... ROFLOL

No, no you cannot, however, surprise me ... it has happened before ...
perhaps you have saved the best for last ... or, is all you have to
offer more butt kissing of those who have gone before?

Sad, so very sad, but then, you already know that and have prostituted
all your mental prowess getting here ... imagine-a-tear-in-each-of-my-eyes

I have not read anything over the last two years regarding the M.O.M /
NEC
Can you give me a smigeon of information of what is being said of such
programs?
There was mention of such in a ARRL compendium a few years back that
made mention of the assumption made
on the continuity of an applied sine wave which conflicts I believe
with the Tank Circuit equivalent.
And ofcourse some programs do better with respect to proximity effect
better than others, but I have never seen anything of major content.
I do know that all four forces of the standard model are included in
such programs however they are rarely utelised since they are not
really understood
in the present state of the art.
Regards
Art

Art:

Actually, Roy, or one (or all the hams) engaged in writing an interface
to the NEC engine (MMANA-GAL and 'those guys' -- do an internet search,
their emails are readily available), which frees us from having to enter
the actual numerical data into a text file, would be much better gurus ...

As you know, I am much more interested it what we can't see, at the
moment -- the either ... Art, I have as many questions as you ...

JS

Sorry Brett, gumming repetition does not prove an idea you already
allowed as being a dead and embraceable disgust. You clearly don't
have any idea how to progress beyond incantation of trolling
prosodies.

To your credit, no one expects originality from you. After all, that
is the point of your (self-supposed) anonymity (an ironic joke I
enjoy). You could as easily be Sara luxuriating in the flush of your
TV debate victory (complete with your aw-shucksisms)!


Well, let me see here, I mean, I want to give you all due respect, and
all that ...


No you don't. This maudlin appeal is weak tea, save it for Authur who
shares your disability in lack of originality.

I do applaud the parade of the lame and lazy excuses you two manage to
bluff up in the guise of outrage. What a hoot! Insisting others to
prove your claims has to rank up there on the honor roll of welfare
queens. If the Congress had a bailout for ineptitude (and it has been
fairly proven they do), they would have granted you earmarks for your
mutual admiration society diary entries. You guys scribble out those
tear stained pages like they earn tax credits. Weep on! The election
cycle still has 30 days of promises to be made to the technically
indigent.

Richard,
Calling people 'name' here is fairly common place. But making
comparison to politician is just plain nasty!

Yes, I know. It keeps me up at nights worrying about it.

About the politicians that is, they deserve better associations than
to antenna inventors; and at 12% approval, politicians have higher
validation. After all, they at least offer you a solution even if,
like antenna inventions, it doesn't work.

Can you imagine *we the people* telling our leaders to "fix it" and
our leaders asking us "How?"

Hmmmm, Maybe the happiness twins have something going!
How many here would react positively to a write-in campaign to elect
them for somethin'? I dropped the 'g to sound folksy like Brett %-)

OK. I have been kind, actually. Really? You just don't matter ... I
have suggested it in my text to you, consider my text summarized with
the simple statement.

Besides, you are a long-winded-blow-hard ... you remind me of the guy
who I just walk away from my rig, come back ten minutes later, with a
cup of coffee, and wait a long time for him to finish ... a long wait,
most likely ... :-(

Boy, self contradiction in the space of a breath.

That, or we are into parsing. What kind have you been?

Talk about gassing on, the two of you could be the solution to the
energy crisis if we could just get you guys off the endangered
wheezers list.

The instructions for bailing out in a parachute suggests you pull the
ripcord BEFORE you hit the ground.
