1. If the magnitude of the forward current is the same at
both ends of the coil, there is no net storage of charge.

2. If the magnitude of the reflected current is the same at
both ends of the coil, there is no net storage of charge.

These conditions satisfies K7ITM's requirements. But he
is being fooled by the sum of the two above currents
which is meaningless to net charge storage.

Statements 1 and 2, above, already prove there is no net
storage of charge. Looking at the standing wave current
is meaningless after that technical fact.

There is no "net" charge storage on a capacitor in an AC
environment, either, Cecil, but you can still get current
to go through it. I wouldn't argue with Tom too much if I
were you, Cecil, because without the facts he's pointed out
in regards to charge, your inchoate theorizing wouldn't mean
anything at all.
