Radiation can be tied into the ampere-area. It comes from
charge acceleration.

Only exactly at the feedpoint.

I put two models up, worse case and best case. It's actually
possible with some feedline lengths to have more radiating
current distributed over area in the feedline than the
antenna, just like it is to have less in the feedline than
the antenna.
