hey rick..  you are the kind of dichead that makes  people afraid to ask
questions !  someone asks a question and you reply with an insult....
the us government is conducting an experiment on "the effect of 10 megawatts
of microwave radiation on human tissue"  they need volunteers..  i took the
liberty of sending your name in..  the next time someone asks a question and
you feel the need to insult them, please go fornicate yourself..  my best
regards to you and  your incredible mental magnitude...  we stupid people
in the usa can only be in awe of you...and hope that you will continue to
grace us with  your intellectual prowess   paul w8jn

I know what a dipole is: a length of wire split into two with a trasnmission
line attached at the split, but what do you mean by "random wire?"

This question really surprises me...I wonder to what extend the depth of
knowledge is required to gain a Ham Licence in the USA...even more than
that, the lack of further reading on such a fascinating subject as antennas
after getting the license..
Wes, I do not know how long you have had your license and I am not in any
way trying to flame you personally but I would have thought that in your
search for knowledge, to be able to sit the exam and gain your licence, that
you would have to have come across this term "random wire" in the books.
Whether it was before you sat the exam or even after you gained your
licence.  If you were interested enough in the hobby you would further read
the books to upgrade and then you surely would have come across the term
"random wire".
I plead ignorance here as I am not a citizen of the USA but it seems to me
the amount of knowledge in general, required to gain a ham licence in your
country, seems so small that i wonder when it will get to the stage of just
paying your money over the counter for it...
This is my personal opinion...

It is the soldier who salutes the flag,
serves under the flag
and who's coffin is draped by the flag,
who allows the protester to burn the flag.
