Antenna question I received via Email.

I suspected there are many people who lurk but will never post in a
public arena. After my experiences with a cyber-stalker I can
understand their hesitance.

A SWL in Scotland asked me about a comment I made regarding antennas
in one of my RFI diatribes.

Sorry for the delay, but I ran this past some friends of varying
technical skill levels, to insure that first my answers are
technically accurate, and as simple as I can get, while maintaining
accuracy.

Get the wood out to start the fire to burn me at.

There are really only three types of HF antennas.
Dipoles
Loops
Surface or Traveling wave.

I tend to look at things in terms of form, fit and function. As such
there are two major types of antennas complete and incomplete antennas
or balanced and unbalanced or Hertzian and Marconi.

I'd list some of what you have as subtypes.

Type 1 Marconi, unbalanced, incomplete antennas
a. random wires.
b. Beverage
c. Monopole

Type 2 Hertzian, balanced complete antennas
a. Dipoles - voltage sensitive open loop
b. Loop - magnetic sensitive closed loop
