He wasn't measuring "standing wave current", whatever that is. You
should probably examine his test setup more carefully.

But he then used that same evidence to support w8ji's
ridiculous 3 nS delay through a 75m mobile loading coil when
there is no relationship between standing wave current phase
and the delay through a loading coil. Traveling wave current
must be used to measure the delay through a loading coil,
something I have been saying for years.


And after all those years you still haven't provided any measurements
that support what you've been saying. And as far as I know, neither has
anyone else. But I'm happy to stand corrected.
