You seem to be confusing radial wires with ground screen wires. Radial
wires must be insulated from the ground because they need to be
specific lengths for the frequency they are cut for.

The ground detunes the wires so it doesn't make a
lot of difference if they are insulated or not. For
the same reason, the lengths are not very critical.
