not my radio Barry.

RF photons are about 8-9 orders of magnitude less energetic than visible ones and are completely undetectable as individual entities....as far as I know, individual photons are detectable in the microwave region (just), but not at longer wavelengths.

Seems to me that it makes no sense to try to use photon concepts when dealing with radio waves. Just as it makes no sense to use RF design techniques when dealing with gamma ray photons. Horses for courses.

Cheers Ray
