Ooops. I must apologise for my mistake: I've read the article in more
detail and Lloyd is not feeding a small antenna, he is using the "feeder" as
the antenna by deliberately unbalancing it with a terminal unit to obtain
maximum current at the far end of the feeder. Presumably this would then be
elevated to a convenient point for maximum effect.

Here is an interesting antenna made by Lloyd Butler VK5BR. It uses open
wire feeder to a VERY small antenna.
