Nav, are you answering my question with another question?

I don't know what he's done, that's why I asked. I've done this before, and I was wondering if he could support his claim, without including a 1/4 wave radiator. I know he said "many" antennas, but I'm making a distinction here for Booty Monster to indicate to him again, that there are differences in using radials among different antennas.

If you think an end fed 1/2 wave has a bad match at the feed point, you should see what happens when a 1/4 wave doesn't have radials. Such results will cross your eyes. {Cry_river}
