Everyone is wrong except you, huh? The fact still remains
that your following assertion was wrong:

Roy said:
"This is the total current. It has magnitude and phase
like any other phasor, and the same rotational speed
as its components."

Total current on a standing-wave antenna does NOT have
the same rotational speed as its components. It hardly
rotates at all up and down the entire 1/2WL dipole.
EZNEC and Kraus agree with me on that fact. All you
have to do is fire up EZNEC and prove it to yourself.

That means that your and Tom's phase measurements
through a loading coil were invalid. One cannot
use a current with unchanging phase to measure
a phase shift.
