Browsing through Nostalgia Air, I ran across this interesting antenna 
sold by RCA in the Thirties. Does anyone have any information, such as 
dimensions, on this antenna? Or perhaps is familiar with NEC enough to 
do a little reverse engineering? I like to study old antennas for ideas. 
Back before WWII, stations were few and far between. And receivers were 
much less sensitive than today. So the antennas had to be better.
