True.  ;)

Well, I rarely get hung up on the terms people use as long as we all know what we mean when we call it whatever we are calling it. My problem with the term "counterpoise" as applied to an EFHW antenna is that it pretends that the extra length of wire is something other than a way to shift the feedpoint toward off-center instead of off-end.  In my opinion it's misleading in terms of how the thing actually functions.
