i agree with Bob Booty, going on a ham forum with cb lingo will get you mocked, splattering, is caused by non linear amplification, not the antenna, bleedover is usually caused by overloading the front end of a receiver/an amp splattering, the term means to bleedover into adjacent channels or even other parts of the spectrum, depending on severity and frequency of the harmonics produced, they may or may not be strong enough to be noticed or cause rfi to other service users, don't mean they ain't there though.
like Bob i would instantly recognise your bleedstick term as an antenna known to produce olympic status rfi/tvi or excessive noise pickup due to common mode current flowing on shield outer/causing it to form part of the antenna as well as part of the supposedly shielded transmission line.
many hams are quick to mock cb'ers and their terminology, ironically even ones less smart than the person they are mocking, as a certain ham found out with me when he tried to mock me on an amateur forum, and was brought crashing to earth by another ham who isn't as narrowminded to cb'ers and posted an argument between me and said ham from another forum i had long forgot about where i made him look like a tit, just before i got banned, duhhh, which incidently is what my signature is about as it was a quote from Bob to that very same ham who was celebrating the fact i was banned therefore no longer able to dispel his bullshit, sadly for him Bob wasn't banned and neither were a handful of other hams on that forum that have shown me nothing but complete respect, even in their section of said forum.
ironically after I was banned, yet another ham (i beleieve) posted about said ham and me that he missed me as the internet was made for "Jazzsinger v Retard" threads, so not all hams are the same just as not all cb'ers are the same, despite my many disagreements with Garth over the years, never once have i seen him and many other hams i've argued with post bullshit in the cb section of this forum, these guys have my respect far more than any cb'er or ham for that matter passing on myths through ignorance. they tell it like it is,its that simple. I respect that even if it'S ME THEIR PROVING WRONG.
better too keep your mouth shut and learn,than to open it and prove your an idiot in presence of those who obviously know more, that applies to any forum on any subject.take me on any forum about any subject, even ones i don't know, i'll have the bullshitters all tagged in hours, they all have one thing in common, constantly linking to others for information and shallowness of knowledge in their answers, especially when challenged, if they really knew they'd type it themselves in depth. i generally find people who know, are passionate about a subject, therefore tend to over elaborate.
