==========================================
I wonder if an end fed  half wave antenna is a high resistance if a
counterpoise is used.  This actually would look like a 3/4 wave (with a
quarter wave counterpoise) offset fed antenna with no feedline.  This would
be a resonant antenna with a few hundred ohms at the feedpoint.  Most of the
radiation should be from the half wave section so should be an efficient
antenna.
