Hi.
Which should be the length of a long (or not that long) receiving antenna, not terminated, single wire, unbalanced, that will provide the most voltage signal for a receiver ?
(Either in wavelengths multiples or submultiples, or centimeters)
The frequency to be received is 520 MHz (~57cm band) , the tuner impedance more than 2000Ω
- And why ?
This is not about yagis, dipoles, standing waves, gain, directionality... just about the optimal theorical length of a properly oriented single wire antenna.
My antenna book shows mostly sensitivity lobes, impedances... but cannot discern reception voltages.
