The May issue of QST has an article of a rather interesting concept...
use a lightbulb instead of a stinger as the final element of an antenna.
I looked up the link and followed the rabbit trails to find some good
web pages.
It turns out that tungsten is a better conductor of RF than stainless
steel.
a fun read at the least..... maybe a project to be done??
look over the links below
