Here's your assignment for tomorrow, Tnom:

Compare the resistive losses due to skin effect for a 1/4 wave vertical (27 MHz)
made of both stainless steel and solid silver wire of the same diameter. And I'm
going to help you out by reminding you to integrate the current distribution on
the antenna, and I'll even let you pick an arbitrary diameter and disregard the
taper. Show your work (and don't skip steps).

Not needed. I know the truth because I have used the antennas.

You assume that nobody else has done any testing for themselves. You are wrong.

Here's your assignment for tomorrow. Get off your fat ass and test the
antennas.

Once again --- and try to comprehend it this time --- I already have.

Good. Then you have properly documented the results.

A proper test could only be done with much attention to detail.
All this would require a detailed account of every variable.
Attempts would be made to keep the variables the same between
the different antennas. If done successfully the test would reveal
useful numbers.

I'm waiting for the test conditions and your results. You do have
numbers don't you? What antennas did you test.?
