Cecil,

I am happy to see that we are in agreement on this long-standing argument.

I explained this to Walt in some private e-mails about 18 months ago,
and I wrote similar explanations in this group. I was vilified by both
Walt and you.

I will summarize once again.

Both the Walter Maxwell model and the Steve Best model for this
transmission line problem work correctly. They are internally self
consistent, and they give the same physical answers. They obey the
standard laws of physics and mathematics. However it is not possible to
mix-and-match the models, using equations and definitions from one model
in the other.

Walt continues to mis-read Steve Best's QEX articles. He needs to throw
away all of his pre-conceived definitions about the meaning of specific
Vx components and read exactly what Steve wrote.

73,

You and Dr. Best obtain the same component powers. You just group them
differently. You guys are two inches away from agreeing.
