The next question is whether such a load is a good characterisation of the
actual coil. The value of R seems rather high.

Wouldn't that correspond to a Q of 10, which is pretty bad for a air
core coil. I'd say something like 30 or 100 would be more realistic
(unless it's wound with really fine wire)

I opened the document in 4NEC2. Whilst my version of EZNEC cannot read
or write .NEC decks, 4NEC2 can read .EZ format.

If you look at the pic of the coil, a Qi of 10 seems very low.
Nevertheless, it doesn't consume much power.
