At resonance, the current into the base of the loading coil, was 2.2 A. But when measuring the current into the antenna at the hot end of the coil, the meter only indicated 1.8 A. I had expected the reading to be the same at both ends of the coil. It should be the same, but I suspect that it is a significant part of the total length of the antenna, and is radiating.
