?  For c. five years, the ARRL Handbook had the wrong Pi-L tank values -  
-  despite being repeatedly told about the problem.  
.  For instance, ever since 1995, the Handbook has had an inaccurate 
method of calculating RF current in a DC blocking cap.  My guess is that 
it will remain there until sometime around 2040.  .
