Pseudo experts of fractional wavelength antennas.
Where does the current flow when it reaches the END of a fractional
length?
verticle antenna and why?
How does this relate to the term "end effect"?
If you have already written a book then tell us what the auther said.

it turns around and goes right back down the way it came.

So a electrical generater doesn't keep turning in one direction
but instead it occillates at the desired frequency.
I have never seen one do that!
And "end effect" is the confusion created at the top of the radiator


'end effect' is an effect of the capacitance seen from the end of the
antenna to ground or the other part of a dipole.

how does a generator come into this? you feed current into a wire with an
open end, it gets to the end, reverses direction and goes back to where it
started. no frequency was stated or implied all you asked was where there
'current' went... that could be any kind of current including a step or
pulse or sinusoids of any frequency.
