Wire diameter vs Impedance
A wonderfully logical explanation. But there's something wrong with it
because the conclusion it reaches is demonstrably wrong.
An antenna made with a larger diameter wire must be made shorter, not
longer, than one with a smaller diameter wire to maintain the same
resonant frequency.

Bottom line, smaller wire means more inductance and a shorter lenght
for the same resonant frequency. Bigger wire means less inductance and
a longer length for the same resonant frequency.
