Other multiple measurements by independent sources agree with
me and disagree with you, Tom. Wonder why you neglected to post
this reference from your own server?

It is a posting to TowerTalk by Jim Lux, W6RMK. I'll just extract
some excerpts.

"For closewound coils, with length to diameter ratios around 5:1, a
series of fairly careful measurements have been made with the coils
arranged vertically above a ground plane, fed at the base, with a
capacitive load on the other end, and the driving frequency arranged
to be at the resonant frequency of the whole assembly."

Sure sounds like your 100 uH 10"x2" coil installed in a mobile ham
radio antenna environment.

The tantalizing part from my perspective is this:

"The measurements were made with carefully designed fiberoptic probes
that were specifically designed to avoid perturbing the magnetic and
electric fields."

I would like to read a full description of this instrumentation.
