Mr. Maxwell was kind enough to invent a device called a choke or current
balun to force the current to go where it is supposed to, and not go where
it isn't; keeping the "target" desired pattern intact. Folks who use randomly
wound coax at the feed point for this purpose will have varying results
compared to a properly designed choke balun.
