I think you pretty much covered the situation Robb.

I still believe the idea that was presented here by: Steve Yates where he is suggesting and showing his work and testing...that an EFHW only needs approximately .05wl of wire to provide the necessary return current path. So, if he's wrong then I'm wrong.

If you will read his attached published work article you'll see there are plenty of opinions that suggest the EFHW will not work at all, forget the coax shield or the mast.

Thanks for your comments Robb and theDB.

Note: I will be posting this information in a new thread of its own in order to follow up if there is any interest.
