Default Current through coils

Cecil,

I did not say anything about W8JI's measurements. He had a completely
different setup, and I had nothing to do with it.

You have a remarkable Teflon coating. I completely called your bluff on
the bugcatcher coil, and you simply ignore the result and slide away to
some other Don Quixote adventure. I am not really surprised, of course.

I've been waiting for you to come back with the facts that
contradict W8JI's measurements. Thanks once again.

The coil has about half the inductance of the 100 uH coil
measured by W8JI. He measured ~4 degrees in 100 uH. EZNEC
reports 8 degrees in 60 uH for an 8.5 foot antenna.

My wild ass guess was at least five times more accurate
than W8JI's measurements. Thanks for pointing that out.
