[Antennas] Tesla antenna?

Sat, 08 Feb 2003 10:06:12 -0500

I have a book with all of Tesla's patents.  Tesla has 11 patents in the 
area of "Radio"
None of these patents show any antennas other than loop coils associated 
with the
transmitting and receiving sides of the system.
I don't think there are any devices that would be appropriate for ham radio 
today.
