On his web site, Yuri quoted W9UCW as measuring the currents at the ends
of a toroid mounted at the base of the antenna as being 100 mA at the
bottom and 79 at the top. You must, then, believe these measurements to
be in error.

Not!
Here what Yuri has on his web site, quote by W9UCW:

"Because of the constant claim that this must be due to the fact that the coil
is so big compared to a wavelength, I measured the in and out current on a
TOROIDAL loading coil used on a 20m mobile antenna. It was a 78" base mast
(including spring and mount) with a 38" top whip (including 12" of alum. tubing
for adjustment).
Below --100ma & Above --79ma
When I moved the coil to the top of the mast and made a horizontal "X" top hat
to resonate it back on the same freq, I got
Below --100ma & Above --47ma

So, It happens even in a totally shielded loading coil with miniscule power
going thru it! Kirchoff has no laws about current being the same on both ends
of inductors. His current law is about one POINT in a circuit and his voltage
law is about a closed loop."

He described exactly how it was done, definitely not at the base.
