Good. And I see from your other response that you understand the question.

So now we have a simple series circuit consisting of a generator, the
loading inductor, and the R + L or C we used to substitute for the
antenna. And your "no" response indicates you've agreed that the voltage
across and current through the inductor are the same as when it was
connected to the antenna.

Now, choose any values you'd like for the generator voltage or current
and the component values, and write the equations showing that the
current into the inductor is different in any way (amplitude or phase)
from the current going out. Or, if that's too taxing, I'll choose some
values for you.

So, was that a yes or a no? I have trouble with your accent.


It's a no. Lumped inductors are not conscious of anything
including their locations.
