What in the world are you bloviating about now?

The statement was there is an electric field but no ELECTROMAGNETIC
field in a "feeder", or more properly, a transmission line other than
in a waveguide.

You do understand that an electric field, a magnetic field, and an
electromagnetic field are three different things?


That is part of the problem, he doesn't seem to.

Oh, he will claim otherwise but I am sure you are correct.

He seems to think that Maxwell's Equations have a wider application than
they do, not the first time he has had issues with Maxwell, if memory
serves.

Expect abuse from him if you try to educate him, it is a thankless task.
Given his attitude, it is no surprise he has failed to learn
much over the years.
