I measured current, which as everyone with a Novice or higher grade

in one direction during each half cycle, and in the other during the
other half cycle, resulting in current which is positive for half the
cycle and negative for the other.
Actually, electrons in a wire are slow-moving particles
and tend to oscillate back and forth at RF frequencies
rather than "flowing".
But what is being discussed here is the total current
reported by EZNEC. Is EZNEC wrong when it indicates
1 degree of current phase shift in 30 degrees of
length in a dipole antenna?
