Dale I seem to recall an indepth analysis on the AntennEx site
Dale showing that it was the shield on the coax that did the majority
Dale of the radiating. A simple proof would be to change the coaxial
Dale feeder length or how it is physically run and look for VSWR
Dale changes.

So if someone tells me about a crazy antenna that "just works" but
which relies on the feedline being straight and not coiled, I should
suspect it to be Isotron-like in design and effect?
