I never even commented on where the placement of the matchbox would be,
and, as everyone knows, anywhere along the line you can place it. The
best place would be between the coax (feedline) and the antenna--that
is, taking for granted that the match from your rig to the feedline is
perfect.

However, no matter where you place the matchbox (including up telemundos
butt), its' losses remain constant, and, it is a net loss to the system
... and the poor antenna remains just as poor--its' faults having been
masked.

Next end-run please?

Now, let me give you a mechanical example, so those willing and/or able
may grasp the concept, in fact, let me give you a couple:

1) The neighbors light is shining in my window(s), it is too bright too
sleep--I place a thick blanket over the window--WAALAA, "masked" the
problem!

2) The neighbors stereo is too loud. I plug my ears, again, WAALAAA,
problem fixed!

3) [add your own example here]

telemundo is an argumentative idiot with a poor working knowledge of
what discussions he engages in ... :-(

But then, if you don't possess the knowledge/experience to be able to
realize this, no one can blame you for being fooled ... later.

Telemundo is a subsidiary of General Electric.

Your analogies don't hold up. You cannot transmit with a Beveridge and
you cannot transmit with a ferrite loop.

You CAN transmit with both.

And, only emphasizes the importance of what I have been saying, most
would pick the most efficient possible antenna--both examples, of yours,
are less than most efficient ... even for receiving, the ferrite
loop-stick on an a AM/MW radio is far from first choice ... it is
convenient, cheap and highly-portable, however.

Dave -says- You cannot transmit with a Beveridge and

Dave that is "Beverage" Antenna
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beverage_antenna
and sure you can Transmit with it.

-IF- You really wanted a Beverage Antenna for very
Directional Transmitting : Single-point on a Single
Frequency : You might try one at 1.5 WL or 3 WL

Dave -says- you cannot transmit with a ferrite loop.

Sure you can Dave and Ferrite Rod Transmitting

Antennas are just about every where you go . . .

This is a closed loop type of antenna, which in my opinion is safer than
a single wire connected to a portable as far as static charge on the
single wire blowing the radios front end FET amplifier.
