Average net current is the RMS value of the standing-wave
current. Here is a graph of such from Kraus: "Antennas"
for a 1/2WL dipole:

Half of that graph would represent a 1/4WL monopole.

The Fig. 9-6 that Cecil posted is from an older edition of Kraus. In the
new 3rd edition, the same graph is Fig. 14-2 on page 464.

i see nothing about average or peak net current there a t the link
i see no differences by value only of maytters of taste.
Is there someone else here who knows how to explain not fact things so
a normal person can understand what this is all about?

Don't worry, Don, many of the gurus on this newsgroup
don't comprehend it either. Maybe when the light dawns
upon them, they will explain it better than I can.
