[TowerTalk] Trap Resonance

[Joe Subich, K4IK]

Get off your high horse.  In a series circuit, which a loading 
coil most certainly is, the current into and the current out of 
a device must be the same.  In the RF circuit, if the current 
into and out of the coil is not the same only three things can 
be happening: 

1) there is radiation 

2) there is loss 

3) the measurement is disturbing the system being measured. 

I suppose radiation is fine if one has a helical antenna (a 
coil designed radiate) but that's not what the debate is about. 

If you can't understand those concepts, go back to the very 
first circuits (and E&M) courses. 

ANY measured difference in I(in) vs. I(out) is either due to 
one of those three effects and to argue otherwise is to argue 
for perpetual motion.
