Default Wire Receiving Antenna Question

On Dec 31, 5:00*am, "Spin" wrote:
Is it possible to construct a random length receiving antenna by capactive
loading it thru a window? Both sides of the window with a glued sheet of
copper & random length of wire soldered to the outside copper with a strain
relief. Inside copper soldered to wire which is connected to a matching
unit. Or two sheets of copper on both sides of a window so that i can use
coax or ladder line? What about the feasability of inductive loading in the
same manner?


Ofcourse it is feasable. The glass becomes the dielectric of a
capacitor
and there are dipoles made with a series of capacitors in line.
You can also vay the capacitance by sliding one copper sheet to one
side!
