They are related in a traveling-wave environment. They are
virtually unrelated in a standing-wave environment. W8JI
asserts that the delay through a 100T coil at 4 MHz is
3 ns which is impossible. If he had asserted that the
standing-wave current undergoes a 4.5 degree phase shift
through that coil, we wouldn't be having this argument
because the phase of standing-wave current is virtually
constant over the length of a 1/2WL dipole. At the ends
of a dipole longer than 1/2WL, it does an abrupt 180 degree
phase shift. W8JI and W7EL seem to be totally ignorant of
that fact of physics since they both tried to use standing-
wave current to "measure" phase-shift/delay.
