Yep, and I remember HWL running the ART13 and blew the poorly mounted SS tip off the whip at a convention.  That makes me older than dirt.....

Back in the 50's QRO mobiles used large diameter loading coils wound with
heavy wire and often added a copper toilet tank float to the end of the
antenna to minimize corona discharge.

I have found Ham sticks work fine on 20 and up but I won't talk about what
happen to a 75 meter ham stick we were tinkering with and forgot to turn off
the mobile amp!
