The antennas are called Franklin antennas, consisting of a fed top half wave
section with another, insulated from the top, half wave below it. Most
efficient AM antenna design known.

Maybe KFBK will let you pretend that you own theirs!

Sure sounds like a Vertical Half-Wave Dipole to me.

But calling it a Franklin is ok by me. ~ RHF
