Hi Owen,

Being very touchy, especially to the specifics of sitting very still,
sounds like classic common mode problems.

Yes it does Richard. I saw Roy's response regarding isolation of the
feedline, and it is a valid comment. My comment was towards the
reported frequency sensitivity... until the effect of the propagation
delay is removed from the results, the underlying impedance is
obsured.
