Wimpie is right, Richard.

I presume Wimpie can speak for himself. As he offered musings that
were done on the back of a handy envelope, there is every chance he is
not right. I offered a similar chance that I was not right either,
but I offered complete (two in fact) equations that no one has
disputed, and none have faulted for computation. I admitted a
misapplication of one - which also passed without comment.

Considering Wimpie's work was not done for the antenna under
consideration (the size of his being much smaller where radiation
resistance varies by the FOURTH POWER of size) - what does "right"
mean?

I didn't mean Wimpie was right about his technical response. I meant he
was right about a part of his message which you cut:

"I agree with you that several statements on Norbert's site will not
hold when scientifically reviewed. However I think the way you
respond will likely not result in better statements."

"As the name of the newsgroup indicates; this is a radio amateur group
and Norbert site starts with "Dutch amateur radio station". This may
require another approach then you should use in a professional
environment. If you prefer that, Edaboard.com (just an example) is a
more suitable place."
