Aha - condensed the antenna length. This is great. "We don't know
what it is, but we know what it does - let's call it a condensor".
This is great.

Kinda reminds me of the kids and their made-up folk tales in Mad Max
Beyond Thunderdome. Standing on the wings of a crashed burned out plane,
calling out - "Catch the air, Captain Walker!!".

One day, aliens will discover a robot android in the ruins of a
frozen helicopter, and proclaim - "a boy".
