Uh,...
By "effective length" do you mean the comparison of the
length to a standard dipole?
What I mean is, a 1/4 wave dipole against a ground plane is
(?)0.95 a dipole and a 1/8 wave dipole TUNED to resonate is
(?)0.91 effective length.
In other words, for receiving signals a short antenna works
as well as a long antenna and has nearly the same effective
length.
