[Elecraft] K3 on motorboat.

[Grant Youngman]

So this flute thing is essentially a bi-cone EH antenna.  Somehow the cosine derived flute shape helps in satisfying the requirements of the Poynting Theorem, to align the E-H fields in time phase, and on and on.

One of the more controversial antenna types, judging by the range of opinions from  “it must be magic”, to "it’s the coax that actually radiates", to “it works and is simply misunderstood by people too set in their Hertzian thinking to understand the new and brilliant concept”, and so forth.  I don’t know enough to know.  I do know it wouldn’t be worth ten grand to find out :-)
