It obviously has an effect on the standing wave. In no
way can Wes's current waveform be called a cosine function.
However, we know that the current and voltage are in
phase at the feedpoint and at the tip of the antenna.
It is impossible for them to be in phase anywhere else.

It would be better if you provided some sort of demarcation between the
well known facts and the pensive speculation in your posts. :-)

It's all simple physics, Jim, aided by a measured IQ of 168.

Ouch Cecil, I think you need to come down a bit!
We are not prehistoric mammals when compared to what you
perceive your self to be. Do you really want to be a clone of Roy
where you can flout yourself as superior to all?
You have had your fun with all those wave things that
you have foisted upon others but rubbing it in regarding
how clever you are compared to other mortals will not
allow anger that has festered to decline.
