The Smith Chart yields the "how". Please take the "why"

Cecil --- you are begging the question!!

I reported that the addition of 3 or 4 inches above the coil produces a much
larger shift in frequency than adding the exact same length below the coil [by
almost a factor of 100:1]. That is empirical data. It is real and measurable.

My question is one of Physics. I think everyone who reads this list knows it
happens. The real question is: Why?? Why the difference in antenna resonant
frequency?
