ODP: one for the theorist

[Martin Czech]

:::H field is never apart from E field, unles it is DC (well, all this

:::E-field and vice versa - this way we have radio waves.
:::E and H are more or less like voltage and current in Ohm law,
:::and air impedance (vacum too) is about 377 ohms, belive it or not.

:::Another point - wire without return path
:::Well, for me it is antenna. Such wire has certain impedance with

In the meanwhile I believe that there may be a reasonable solution for a single
wire, if E and H feld are computed via Maxwell. The assumptions for low
frequency that allow to compute H in most cases may cause the trouble
in this particular case.
