Remarks on "Comments on the limitations of the Thevenin and Norton equivalent circuits for a receiving antenna"

Collin (see IEEE Antennas and Propagation Magazine, no.45, p.119-124, 2003) remarks that Love (see IEEE Antennas and Propagation Magazine, vol.45, no.4, p.98-99, 2003) has misinterpreted his. In the paper under discussion, he did not discuss the efficiency of a receiving antenna or give any comment on the maximum efficiency a parabolic receiving antenna could have. Love's statement that it appears that Collin believes most receiving antennas cannot have an efficiency greater than 50% is speculation on his part.
