Understanding Parallel to Series conversion

For the 58 Ohm resistive value, it would have to be about 300 feet
tall - not the size of operation one usually comes to expect for a
Xtal radio aficionado.

If it is that tall, it would exhibit 200 Ohms Inductive reactance (one
fifth of what you report, and the opposite sign).

Something doesn't wash here.

Perhaps it's a longwire antenna, of crappy wire, parallel to
the ground?
