So how many nanoseconds does that 36.6 degree phase shift represent?



As far as impedance discontinuity *points* go, a nonsense
question.


The question was excellent. 'Impedance discontinuity points' is nonsense.

How many nanoseconds does it take for a signal to travel
through a dimensionless point???? Well, let's see. What
is the speed of light multiplied by zero? Hmmmm, that's
a really tough one.


The hard part would be inverting zero sec^-1 in order to get units of
time. :-)
