The key to the seawater antenna seems to be adjusting for the correct SWR (Standing Water Ratio). According to experiments by Simon and Garfunkle, this requires a Bridge Over Standing Waters. I should probably stop while I'm behind.

This is very interesting. I am tempted to try building one. Can anyone think of a design to control the height of water pillar precisely and continually? ??

Dave, I hope you are feeling better.??

Sorry to have to cancel out today. I'm on the mend.
Here's a new approach for hams like us, fortunate to live near seawater.
