Displacement Current Demonstration



Here's a simple question.

In Elecromagnetics there are lots of relatively simple experiments
that can demonstrate the various principles and fields.

But I've never seen one that can directly demonstrate a displacement
current. The usual argument seems to be that since the displacement
current hypothesis is necessary for Maxwell's equations to predict
electromagnetic radiation and since said radiation is known to exist,
therefore we doan need no steenkin' direct demonstration of a
displacement current.

Does anybody here know of any direct experimental demonstration be it
simple or complex of the existence of a true displacement current.
Even a reference to a paper where someone has done it?
