Here's an experiment to try.
Take Cecil's model of the vertical with the loading coil. Add a single
horizontal wire, 10 feet long, connected at the top of the loading coil.
That is, make the new wire go from 0, 0, 26 to 10, 0, 26. Notice how
much current there is in the horizontal wire. Notice how much different
the current is in the vertical below the wire compared to above the
wire. Look familiar?
We can work our magic without either an inductor or a stub.
