Radios, and more light!

How do they get those long wavelengths?  I was going to work the Black Body problem, and before I got into trouble with that, I began to think again about the large spectrum of light we can accommodate with just one space impedance.  Then is occurred to me, a radio antenna runs the electrons in harmony, and they compose the radio wave from synchronous excitation of a linear set of atoms on the antenna. Thus can they make big waves from small one.

That solves a big problem I was having with counting up wavelengths. That allows me to go on to Black Body radiation, and that problem is tricky because the wavelength used  and the Boltzman constant may not correspond exactly to null slots available in the electron space.  As you all know, I build light theory from just the two wave quantization ratios that make the space impedance a constant, and go from there. I am not sure that Plank understood and we might have to alter his theory a bit.

Here is the basic summary of atomic light emission.  There are two wave numbers that determine the space impedance for standard EM wave.  But the frequency of the light is determined by the null quant size of the sub slots in the electron space.   There are actually free nulls in those klinetic energy slots, not enough to stabilize wave, but enough to chase if they get loose. When the orbit gets excited, the nulls leave town, and excess phase chases them, one at the magnetic wave number and one, way up, at the electron wave number.  The phase has no isea that this is an endless chase, and they chase them with space impedance determined by the ratio of these two major wave numbers. But the null quant size of the excited orbit determines the frequency. The larger the null quant size, the larger the frequency of light, at the fixed impedance.
