Ian, not wishing to be classed amongst the old wives you have very
carefully avoided talking about "power radiated from feedlines". You
have shifted to using clamp-on ammeters.

But people who DO discuss things in such terms are unable to justify
the use of chokes by quantifying the power actually radiated and
setting limits on what power level is acceptable or is not acceptable.
If they can't measure or calculate the power level then they know
nothing about what they are are talking.

That's not really quite true. Can you or anyone else tell how many watts
is radiated from each element of a Yagi? How? Then how do you know which
elements are important an which are not?
