        As far as the speed with which the impedance varies,
I'm sure that has been explored.  There was something in the
TCBA News a while back about some measurements of current
waveforms and, I believe, harmonics.  I know that the harmonic
output of my coils here seems relatively small.  While the
coils are not good radiators at their fundamental or their
lower harmonics, would expect to hear quite a bit of third 
and fifth harmonics here and haven 't observed that.  Of course,
don't let the coil in the attic of the garage run very long
while I run into the house and tune the receiver!
        Been intending to bring home a spectrum analyzer and
do some observations.  Haven't had the ambition as yet.
