freecell,
read my supposition again as one whole statement, instead of just concentrating on a few words of it.
i would think it would be pretty obvious what i meant. especially to someone of your intelligence.
nowhere in that statement did i intend to assert that a 1:1 VSWR match is any indication of resonance.
i am interested to hear your take on it, but first you have to understand what im asking about.
doc's use of analogy and terminology did not confuse me in the least.
he told me what happens, you told me how it happens.
wouldnt you agree that all of the other elements of said fan dipole "resisted" the signal while one set of elements "accepted" it?
im sure there are many synonyms that could have been used.
again, i would think that you are smart enough to see what he meant.
anyway, i thank you both for trying to increase my knowledge.
it is appreciated.
