Dave, this takes me back to Fort Monmouth Signal School over fifty years ago, struggling to become a Tactical Microwave Radio technician, then up to 2016 studying for my Extra exam and using pneumonic devices like "Eli the Iceman" (thanks to Gordon West) for about three days! Sat for exam and only missed TWO! Returned home, drank a couple of beers, and slept twelve hours. Thanks Dave! Bill/WW5MB

Thanks for sharing all your wisdom Dave! I've been a ham for awhile now but I have a low "capacitance" for remembering these things which gives me more "inductance" to refer to your videos with more "frequency" and you explain things so WELL I have WAY less "resistance" to watching your videos with more "frequency"!

This is fantastic. Reactance makes so much sense. Also, I appreciate that you mentioned that reactive capacitance only *appears* to lead the base phase because it's so far behind that it's in front! That made a lot of sense and clarifies that for me as well. Thanks for the "long winded" (your words) explanation. It was very welcome to this curious ham.

i think the questioner might have been confused by seeing a capacitor value change over different frequencies on an antenna analyzer as i have. Also I found this on digikey "Since capacitance changes with frequency, industry standards specify the test frequency at 1MHz, 1kHz, or 120Hz." But what Dave was explaining is important for antenna design.

Thank you Dave. It seems no matter how many times I read or watch videos about this subject I still have trouble relating it to how to use the information regarding antennas. Could you do a KZitem video on how you change antennas with high inductance or resistance? Also interpreting the information on an antenna analyzer with regards to Capacitance, Inductance, and Resistance.

From Richard VE3RKK: Thank you Dave for an excellent presentation. But I continue to challenge the terminology used when referring to the difference between capacitive and inductive reactance simply because it causes confusion. I am fairly new to 'Hamonics' and, having a heck of a time restlling with the "lead/lag" explanation used, I had to fall back on memorizing the textbook explanation for my exam. The FACT of the matter, as I see it, and you spoke of it before falling back to the 'Hamonics' explanation is that BOTH inductive and capacitive reactance LAG the phase but capacitive reactance lags sufficiently more that it APPEARS to lead the NEXT cycle which is analogous to declaring a runner in a race, who fell so far behind he/she is short one complete lap on the track but because he/she crossed the finish line ahead of the competitors he/she is declared the winner. For a novice staring at an oscilloscope it is understandable how one could declare capacitive reactance leading the wave without understanding it is actually almost a cycle behind it which I deduce it takes longer to 'charge' a capacitor, the voltage has to drop before it releases it, then an inductor (comparison of like reactance in ohms)? Am I correct and if so why is it taught that capacitive reactance leads the phase which, in reality would mean electricity is being "produced" from nothing.

I love you Dave I wish you had showed the phase angle change when an inductor or capacitor is in line with a resistor. An Inductor will have a phase angle of 90 degrees, but with resistance included it will have a phase angle of less than 90 degrees (depending on the resistance value)

I passed my Amateur Extra exam in under 10 minutes with a 50/50 ace, but I'd like to say this is one of the best visual explanations I have seen. One question: I see 2xpi (two times Pi) used often in your formulas. Have you ever considered using Tao in it's place when applicable?

To make it even more complicated there's an exception when you make an air core solenoid, then you have an inductor that also has capacitance in between the windings. I make tesla coils for hobby and one of the hardest things to do is getting the primary and secondary coils in tune to create scalar waves which causes the plasma breakout.

All capacitors and inductors apparent value will change with frequency, the construction of the part will determine by how much. Take for example an electrolytic capacitor. To get a large value they are typically 2 thin foil plates with a dielectric material. This is then wound into a spiral to fit it inside the housing. This spiral also creates an inductance. If you put one on a network analyzer and do a frequency sweep using a smith chart it will be going between capacitance and inductance with frequency. Of course most people know not to use an electrolytic with RF applied to it. Resistors can also have this problem. Some higher power resistors are made from a resistive wire wrapped around a core which also makes it an inductor. Using these in audio frequency range will not be an issue as the inductance will be small enough to ignore. Once it gets into RF regions then the inductance starts to become apparent and even dominate. Inductors are not immune either, adjacent windings act as a capacitor. As you go up in frequency it will 'look' like a capacitor at some point. So the short answer is the calculated value is always that, but know what frequency range you can use the part in.

This does shed SOME Light on the subject BUT it does not speak to whether an Amateur Operator building experimental antennas should care about Phase Angle, whether it is affected by or affects resonance or antenna efficiency and how one might go about adjusting or changing Phase Angle. I'm know that by looking at Real Resistance and a Smith Chart, one can correct for Impedance / capacitance/ inductance mismatches and an antenna tuner can do that for you. What is missing in my mind is how one can adjust or correct it on the antenna itself to improve radiating efficiency. This is simply the missing piece(s) of the puzzle for me and other "experts" I have talked to.
