Cecil:

I wasn't being cynical, and although I cannot "carry it in my head", it
is good for the example chart, I agree, a picture is worth a thousand
words--I was not poking fun... but hey, it does look kewl.... I am not
above cheap tricks to impress my company... perhaps I admit my failing
here to be poked fun at--but the first time I seen one--was pretty damn
impressed!!! (still am actually)

Warmest regards,
John

For me, the biggest advantage of the Smith Chart is that I can
carry it around in my head. It is a graphical math model of
a transmission line. A picture is worth a thousand calculators.
