Tom Donaly has graciously volunteered to provide those values.
Please stand by.

Actually, I just wanted to calculate the values for my own personal
edification. You'll have to do the arithmetic yourself, Cecil, and
then it won't mean much, because, as far as I know, no one has ever
done any experimental work to see if these equations have any meaning.
If a coil can slow down an electromagnetic wave as much as these
equations say it can, though, it qualifies as a very interesting device.
