just like AC phasing confused Edison." 
 
In W8JI`s pages I found this on the subject of "Mobile antennas, short 
verticals, loading" : 
It`s long and Tom warns about taking anything from context, so it should 
be searched out and read in its entirety. I have no quarrel with most of 
Tom`s pages but find this statement curious: 
"When current flows in the transmitter-end of the coil, a magnetic field 
is created. The time-varying magnetic field causes charges in the other 
turns to instantly move." 
 
Instant movement of charges is instant current, and everyone knows that 
current in a coil lags the voltage.
