[NJARC] Antenna Physics

[Rob Flory]

Hi Joe, Alex, and antenna freaks everywhere,

The fellows at RCA and GE, Alexanderson, Beverage, Chester Rice, Edward Kellog et al, understood the physics of antenna wave angle quite well.  If you check out their paper, "The Wave Antenna, A New Type of Highly Directive Antenna" Trans. AIEE Vol. 42 pp. 215-266 1923 you can see that the antenna physics art was quite well developed at that time.  There is also a bibliography of 100-plus sources on earlier work on antennas.
