Hi Walt,

Concerning a topic on rho 1, of course this involves lossy lines, which I
have
never studied very thoroughly, so I'm not about to expose my ignorance in
that
area. However, R.A.Chipman discusses it well in Schaum's Outline of Theory
and
Problems of Transmission Lines. Recommended reading.

OK! Aas a matter of fact, I've scanned in Chipman's book (it's available at
http://oregonstate.edu/~kolstadj/ as "Transmission Lines (Chipman).pdf"), but
I haven't actually had time to read any significant chunk of it yet.

Yep, you've got Chipman nailed down! His tome is one of my bibles. The others
are Kraus' Antennas, and Ed Laport's Radio Antenna Engineering. I have scanned
Laport to a CD, which I'll send you a copy unless you already have one. It's too
large to email, and I don't yet have it available on my web page. So let me know
if you'd like a copy. It's also a gold mine.
