"Todays tip: audio cables are not waveguides nor do they act like waveguides"

So now we are constrained to only be talking about audio frequencies are we? How convenient. Weird how you waited until now to mention it.

I know you may not be free like some of us but I will continue to refer to coax as waveguide just as the rest of the universe will, whether you are in agreement or not, since that is its typical usage.

Feel free to add DC to your coax, for all I care. Sounds like your local authorities are far more oppressive, however. You may want to watch it.

"But it's also true that the E and B fields are produced by the motion of the free electrons."

Correction: a charge has an associated E field whether it hapens to be in motion or not.

Correction #2: a charge trapped in an e field, which has been forced to travel in the path of a waveguide, at a resultant drift velocity, is not free.

Maybe your education is what is lacking in this case.

Is there some poynt you are trying to make?
