[BC] Skirt feeds.....

[Tom Spencer]

Cowboy -

I believe that's called a coaxial vertical antenna...

not unknown at HF / VHF / UHF...

Although there's usually an insulator somewhere in there... <wink>

I suspect if the feedpoint attachment were done correctly, it would work 
as a counterpoised antenna... sort of.

I have EZNEC and another NEC2-based program; I may just try that out...
