So can I - so what? It's the same thing as changing the Z0
of one of the pieces of feedline in my two-Z0 stub example.
No coil is required, indicating once again that your misconception
involves standing waves, not coils.
Now Cecil, get serious.
We all know a stub has distributed capacitance and distributed
inductance. We all know an inductor has the same thing. We can solve
the problem equally well using a network of distributed components as
many others have shown.
IMO, you are never going to understand this topic until you
take time out to understand standing waves.
Well, I could say the same to you about coils and capacitors. :-)
What is it you think
determines current phase shift at each end and current taper?
I explained that at the start of the argument two years ago
and it has been posted on my web page ever since then.
So you don't want to say, or can't say in a few words?
