Default Current across the antenna loading coil - from scratch

Roy Lewallen wrote:
The amount the magnitude of the current drops across an inductor is
determined primarily by the amount of inductance and the capacitance
from the inductor to ground or the other half of the antenna. This is
easily explained by simple lumped constant circuit theory.


How does lumped constand circuit theory handle the phase shift through
the inductance? It is certainly NOT zero as your measured.
