Default Current across the antenna loading coil - from scratch

Roy Lewallen wrote:

So for starters, why don't you explain how your theory fits with the
existing model results? Why is the current drop the same with an antenna
and for a lumped circuit? Why does removing ground make the current drop
go away? Why is there no significant phase shift in current from bottom
to top? Conventional theory can explain this. Can yours?

As for your promise to write the article, I have to point out that
you've made this promise before without delivering. So I'm not exactly
holding my breath waiting for it. I'm sure it'll make interesting
reading, though, and it's a revolutionary enough theory that the IEEE,
or at the very least QEX, should be happy to publish it when it's
finally complete.

Sorry, I forgot to mention that they also don't appear to understand
math, or the fact that "complex numbers" are quite simple if you went to
engineering school and own an HP15 calculator. Mine still works fine.

If you had trouble with the previous statement, Cecil and Yuri, I meant
that your "phasor" math is trivial. At best 2nd year engineering. And
yes, we do understand it. A lot more than you do apparently.
