Yeah, if you really want to improve the efficiency of your antenna,
bend it over and put the high voltage node close to a large mass of
metal. LOL.


What do you think happens when you drive down the road with a coil antenna,
the whip folds back and almost touches itself.

Well mine doesn't and a decent antenna would have a stiff enough
whip not to do that. He was talking about bending it over like the
"Barney Phife" mobile.
