Abstract
An infinity in the input admittance of linear antennas owing to the use of an idealized delta-function generator is investigated. It is shown that the infinity may be interpreted in terms of an infinite capacitance between the two halves of the antenna. The conclusion is reached that conventionally used iterative procedures are not invalidated by difficulties with respect to the driving point.
