Phase is a part of the current distribution profile. I have no idea how it looks in real life, we can't see currents. So we produce imaginary images of how currents might look, and that is what we have seen here.

I agree there are several ways for us to create images for the 5/8 wave radiator being out of phase at the base. After I posted Henry's image using a different program, I made this very point on posting another image using An-SOF...showing an an image of my I-10K model out of phase.

Y'all are missing my point though.

My issue with Eznec is not about the Antenna View image with Currents turned on.

I want to know why I don't see the same phase condition reflected in Eznec's tabular current log in this I-10K model I sent Henry.

In the pdf file below is a "Skeleton Sleeve Fed" model, and the last image shows the tabular current log. As an example of Eznec showing correct phasing in both the Antenna View and the tabular current log, please note that wire #1 indicates correct phasing with the words "phase change" for the model.

Here is the model I sent Henry showing the tabular current log in error compared to the Antenna View.
