Abstract
Using an analytic-continuation argument, it is shown that the Hallén-type integral equation for the current distribution on an unloaded receiving antenna does not have a solution if the approximate kernel is used. Generalizations and consequences of this nonsolvability are discussed. The aforementioned argument does not apply when the exact kernel, which is logarithmically singular, is used.
