"This is impossible, totally violating the principles of electromagnetic theory." 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. Best regards, Richard Harrison, KB5WZI |
