We are still faced with the issue of matching a 50 Ohm transmitter
to a 2 Ohm antenna, but for now I am more interested in seeing if
there is some way to further increase the antenna impedance.

Maybe a caged monopole? I've never tried anything like this myself,
but you might find this kind of interesting.

I saved that too. It goes over my head for now, but it's a well-presented and
interesting idea, one I never saw before.
