Jim's most recent posting is a good example. We were talking about
measuring current along a dipole. I assumed that would mean measuring
the standing-wave current, but Jim introduced the notion of measuring
travelling wave currents.
A point of correction here. I believe you will find the notion detailed
on Cecil's web page.
Yes, the total measured current on a standing wave antenna
is primarily standing wave current. The total measured current
on a traveling wave antenna is primarily traveling wave
current. Please see my last posting.
He's a guy with a limited amount of time and patience honestly
attempting to subvert the ridiculous by stating the obvious.
Obviously, a 100 turn, 10 tpi, 2" dia 75m loading coil cannot
have the 3 nS delay that W8JI "measured". Do you disagree?
