The point is that W9UCW measured, that difference in "normal" loading coil

All explained by the different phasing of the forward and reflected
currents at that point. If you want to blow Tom's mind, measure the current
in and out of a coil placed 1/3 of the distance up in a 1/2WL vertical.
The current will *INCREASE* from the bottom of the coil to the top of
the coil. How many times have we been warned not to use lumped circuit
theory on distributed networks?
