The key is to make sure the radiator is not a multiple of 1/2 wave, the
impedance at the end will be too high.
A non-resonant length will work wonderfully.

Skimmed through the manual but did not find the reference to length of random

I found 20’ and 13’ respectively in the manual but thought there was some
