I'm not likely to soon adopt "antiresonance" for either condition, as
it sounds way too much like something opposing resonance.

In a transmission line with reflections, antiresonance is
indeed plus or minus 90 degrees from resonance and "never
the twain shall meet". Resonance and antiresonance cannot,
by definition, occur at the same point, i.e. if a point
is antiresonant, it cannot, by definition, be resonant.

Quoting "Transmission Lines and Networks", by Walter C.
Johnson, PhD. (one of the heavyweight gurus of the mid-20th-
century) page 156: "When the lossless line is an odd number
of quarter wavelengths long, the sending-end impedance is
theoretically infinite (inversion of the receiving-end
impedance). The actual impedance, considering losses, is a
very large resistance, and the line is said to be ANTIRESONANT."

So your argument is with Walter C. Johnson, PhD, ex-chairman of
the Department of Electrical Engineering at Princeton University,
not with me.
