Gauge transformations leave only specific Maxwell fields unchanged. To reveal more, I develop Lorenz field equations for superposed, sourced and unsourced, wave function potentials. In this Maxwell form system, the Lorenz condition is charge conservation. This allows me to define three transformation classes that screen for Lorenz relevance. Nongauge, sans gauge function, Lorentz conditions add polarization fields. These enable emergent, light-like radiation. That from Lissajous potentials is Nadelstrahlung. It conveys energy localized like particles at charge conserving, progressive phase points. Such rays escape discovery in modern Maxwell fields where gauge transformations suppress the polarizations.
