Default Standing-Wave Current vs Traveling-Wave Current

3. How do you resolve this with the graphs in Terman and your
explanation of the voltage and current being in quadrature everywhere
along the line?


The standing wave voltage is *ALWAYS* in quadrature with
the standing wave current at all points and at all times.
If the total voltage is not in quadrature with the total
current, there is a traveling wave in the mixture.
