The literature disagrees with you. So does NEC. See the IEEE Emerald Book and Green Book. Also see Ott. The conduit DOES greatly increase the inductance of a wire within it that is NOT connected to t

that the end. Why? significantly through it. I doubt it. Eddy currents would prevent much from happening due to the fact it was ferrous. There is a transformer effect that would be the same mechanis

I recall seeing this iron pipe "choke" written about in an article in HR (?) years ago. As I recall, the author explained it as "adding a shorted turn" around the feedline. I'm not sure how that woul

Sort of bringing us back full circle... how does one calculate the inductance (and loss.. since that's pretty signficant). Lightning impulses are pretty broadband, and I suspect that the L and R are
