For the umpteenth time, Ian, I don't have a model developed
by me. The model I use is the distributed network model
invented before I was born. Dr. Corum merely expanded upon
that model and I consider his concepts to be valid.

Your lumped circuit model seems more like a religion
than a valid tool of science. Zero phase shift through
a real-world loading coil? That requires faster than
light propagation thought by many experts to be
impossible.
