Not to be a smart ass but weren't a lot of the old British cars

The electrons come out of the negative end of the battery. The Old Brits
were smart. They didn't want the electrons to jump off of the ends of
the cars, so they tied the positive ends of the batteries to the car
chassis. Except for those cars they exported to Poland ;-) .


The old cars have only a bulbs.


No, they did not.

British cars had positive ground until the 60's.

Radios started appearing in cars in the 30's as well as electric motors.

There is an Edison effect.


The Edison effect is how vacuum tubes work and has nothing to do with cars.

The positive
ground is better in such case.


Having positive or negative ground has no effect on how vacuum tubes or
anything else works, it is simply a matter of convention as to which
side of the power source is concidered chassis.

Now you have many electronics devices. For them must be the negative ground.


No, it is not a matter of "must", it is a matter of convention; either
way will work.

Step by step and you will be an expert on electrons.


Like you?

You are an ignorant, babbling, ineducable idiot who knows absolutely
NOTHING about how ANYTHING works.

Everything you wrote here is utter, stupid, babbling, nonsense.

How many antennas have you built in your lifetime?

Why do you refuse to answer the question?

Is it because you have built zero antennas and you are trying to say all
the people that have successfully built hundreds that they are all wrong
and you don't want to admit you are an ignorant, inducable, idiot?

Why can't you obtain and read a university level textbook on electromagntics
or even basic electricity in any language?

Is it because you are too stupid to be able to understand the material?
