Yes, and that is what I said but you still appeared to want to couple it to a single piece of wire; sorry if I misunderstood you. Belief that it is possible to couple to a single piece of wire at one end is astonishingly common, so I gave the 12V PSU analogy to make you think. Sorry for any offence I may have caused. If you realise that currents always have to flow in loops then you are in a minority when it comes to antennas!
