Mmm. In the case of atmospheric limited SNRs that is true. A trailing wire under sea water receives just fine at ELF and doesn't work worth a damn for transmitting. But those are special cases that can always be manufactured. Beverage antennas are also not something to be used for transmitting but you won't be disguising one as a chimney cap either In the general sense of h-f to microwave, I stand by my claim. Wes |
