Default Phase Shift through a 75m Texas Bugcatcher Coil

"When current flows in the transmitter-end of the coil, a magnetic field

turns to instantly move."

Instant movement of charges is instant current, and everyone knows that
current in a coil lags the voltage.


Instant movement of charges is impossible except in the mind
of someone using the lumped-element model. Apparently, anything
is possible in that kind of mind. As Dr. Corum said: "Lumped
circuit theory fails because it's a *theory* whose presuppositions
are inadequate. Every EE in the world was warned of this in their
first sophomore circuits course. ... Lumped circuit theory isn't
absolute truth, it's only an analytical *theory* - and in those
resonators we have the case where this sophomore *theory* fails
*experimentally. The engineer must either use Maxwell's equations
or distributed elements to model reality."
