Let's say we have a dipole antenna that we are using to radiate a signal. The dipole antenna (think rabbit ears) has two ends that appear to me to be open circuits.
Maybe my problem is that I have too much circuit background and not enough EM, but how does current flow through these rabbit ears? There is no return path, no loop, so where does it "go"? I know that it's radiating, but I feel that I'm missing something here...
Thanks
