I know it's off topic but I have a question.
How is an antenna that is shorter than 1/2 wavelength called a half
wavelength antenna? Does adding loading coils really turn it back into a
1/2
wavelength antenna?
Seems to me that the current distribution and resulting radiation pattern
would change if it's short regardless of loading. I keep seeing these
antennas show up on the market and just want to be sure I'm right.
