Natural dipole / monopole filtering
Word has it these antennas are broadband, however my calculations show one may not need FM / AM BCB wave traps if not operating around those frequencies.
I have run the script here for:

Why do we not use AM and FM at the same time to transmit more information?
Amplitude modulation uses the modulation of the amplitude of a carrier wave to transmit data while leaving the carrier frequency constant, and in the case of FM it's just the other way round.
Why is ...

Is FM modulation still more resistant to noise when given the same bandwidth as an AM signal?
FM modulated radio is much more resistant to noise and can deliver better sound quality than AM radio. But FM signals also use more bandwidth than AM signals. In general a wider bandwidth signal is ...
