The skeleton slot was developed in the UK for TV use soon after WW2. Someone had worked with
slot aerials on aircraft, and the use of a half wave vertical slot in a very large piece of sheet metal, results in radiation very much the same as a horizontal dipole. They then set out to find out how much you could reduce the metal around the slot, and have it still radiate. Pictures of 2m version
