JGspeed, Like I said as plain as I could, I'm not telling guys like you that what you are doing won't work!
If you think that antenna length is a minor issue for a layman, then I guess you and I just do not agree.
You can coil yours for whatever reason, and I won't coil mine for any reason. At the least, guys considering doing this will have a little more knowlege of how things work, (induction & how it changes tuning) to help them decide wheather or not they really want to try it.
Thanks for the education in todays RC equipment! Good flying to you! Q.
