Quoting Kraus: "A coil can also act as a 180 degree phase

phase shifter if charge cannot travel in two directions?
Seems that you also don't comprehend the nature of a
distributed network such as a bugcatcher loading coil.

For a guy who doesn't seem to be able to make the distinction,
you don't have any business criticizing Tom Rauch's understanding of
the situation.


So you believe that charge density is constant throughout
an RF distributed network?

A charge defined at one point can go one direction or another, Cecil,
as in current, but not two opposing directions at once. And quit telling
me what
I believe; I'll tell you. Let me say in terms you might get this time:
The same infinitesimal charge dQ cannot move in two directions
at the same time. In order to do that it would have to split in two
and that would violate the principle of conservation of charge.
