I agree. It violates first principles of electricity. Radiation is a
resistive load. Voltage across the load coincides exactly with current
through the load. Volts and amps are in-phase. Nothing can be done to
change that. There is no electrical energy storage in a resistance.

Once you tune for unity power factor and match for power transfer,
you`re done and no monkey business will change the radiator from its
natural function. You put a voltage across its drivepoint and it does
its thing independent of how the voltage got there if the source can
supply the antenna`s demand.
