half, you've made a 20-meter antenna :)
A modeling program like EZNEC predicts that a 33-foot center

The impedance at the center of a 33
Hi Mike,
For frequency 7118, I took a length of bare copper wire 33 feet long,
divided (that is cut it ) it in half, took one half to the center of
the BNC connector on the side of the radio and the other half directly
to the grounding rod attached to the house. but from reading the
