You seem to be remarkably ignorant about the containment of the fields
within the coaxial cable,

So how do YOU think the magnetic field is "contained"? You are keen to
critise other's explanations, let us see yours.


This discussion is about the comments.....

" Conversely, the (wanted) signal
currents (on the outside of the inner and inside of the outer) cancel out
the magnetic fields they form in the coil and thus don't see it as an
inductor."

......which discuss non-existent fields.

The containment of the wanted fields within the coaxial cable is another,
different,
discussion.

By all means start another thread to discuss whatever cranky theory you have
about
those contained fields, but I think that you won't find anyone to support
your
pet theories!

As to "critise (sic) other's explanations", I have not criticised any
other's explanation
about the fields _WITHIN_ the coaxial cable, so your challenge is a Straw
Man!

It is always possibly that I have misunderstood what you wrote, so, as the
discussion
is very much about what you wrote, perhaps you could explain your
comments,.....

"Conversely, the (wanted) signal
currents (on the outside of the inner and inside of the outer) cancel out
the magnetic fields they form in the coil and thus don't see it as an
inductor"

......in a manner that is unambiguous? Then, perhaps, go onto another thread
to discuss your theory that the contained fields differ in operation to all
of the standard texts on the subject?
