Thought about it:headbang:headbang,are you trying to rewrite the laws of physics single handedly???????

You obviously don't comprehend the term (DC) ground.If you choke rf on the coax and isolate the mast on a dc grounded antenna you have broken the dc ground path,as the coax shield is also connected to the dc ground point on the antenna,when you ground the shield below the choke you have reestablished the dc ground but have still effectively choked common mode current.

But them maybe I'm wrong,which would also make W8JI wrong and others too,and you would then be the supreme antenna guru in the galaxy Doc.

A while back Moleculo posted W8JI's article on end fed/zepps,I suggest you read it,you may learn something from someone who understands antenna theory.

Hi Eddie,hows things mate?
