Yeah, you are correct but I am between a rock and a hard spot! I bought and installed (expensive) the Bullet Proof Diesel Third brake Light Antenna Mount and installed a Laird NMO CB antenna. Being the location of the mount and antenna are at the rear of the cab, there wasn't too much area for a decent ground plane.
As you stated in your post, " Where most mess-up is thinking the antenna only radiates a signal either from the tip of the stinger, or from the coil up". Yes sir, that's me! I was focusing only on getting the bottom of the coil above the roof.
I ordered the twenty-seven inch shaft about thirty-minutes ago.
