Exactly!!! That's why it is a good tool for such. EZNEC is
not biased. EZNEC reports standing-wave current when only it
exists. EZNEC reports traveling-wave current when only it
exists.

Phase needs to be carefully defined for the case at hand.


In this case, phase is defined by EZNEC. It is the phase of
the total current referenced to the reference phase of the
source.

In summary, if this page is intended to resolve any serious debate, it
does not. This stuff is already fully understood by everyone in the debate.


Of course, you knew all of this all the time and there's
nothing new here. That's why we have been arguing for
three years about it. :-)
