I simply want to know "the value of the DC current".

Do you know it in your station?
there is no static build up while transmitting from an antenna

isolated from ground. *easily measured and proved here every day.

See;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ground_(electricity)
" In electronic circuit theory, a "ground" is usually idealized as an
infinite source or sink for charge, which can absorb an unlimited amount of
current without changing its potential."

"The use of the term ground (or earth) is so common in electrical and
electronics applications that circuits in portable electronic devices such
as cell phones and media players as well as circuits in vehicles such as
ships, aircraft, and spacecraft may be spoken of as having a "ground"
connection without any actual connection to the Earth. This is usually a
large conductor attached to one side of the power supply (such as the
"ground plane" on a printed circuit board) which serves as the common return
path for current from many different components in the circuit."

" no static build up while transmitting " because your station has ground..
S*

you are almost as much fun as art with his magical levitating
neutrinos.

no, i have antennas that are isolated from ground. they are fed
through a capacitor that prevents the charge from flowing to ground
and they do not get charged over time. i know this because when a
thunderstorm is nearby they build up enough charge to arc over the
capacitor. if there was charge being constantly emitted when they are
transmitting the capacitor would arc all the time.
