I see Cecil's temporarily run out of steam on his alternative theories
of transmission line operation and so has fallen back to his equally
imaginative pseudo-science of loading coils. I made and posted careful
measurements on this group long ago of a physically small coil to refute
some of the stranger claims being made. I can only describe as
disgusting the ducking, weaving, hemming, and hawing Cecil and Yuri went
through in trying to predict using their imaginative theories what the
results would be. Of course, like any competent fortune tellers, once
the results were given they claimed to have known all along. It's all
there in the archives for anybody who has the stomach for it. I don't.
