Default Translate Smith-Chart statement to English?

"Does '8-1000 ohms impedance' include ALL COMBINATIONS of #X#jY SUCH
THAT SQRT (Xsquare + Ysquare) is in the range of 8 to 1000 (such as
#8+j0 to #1000+j0 and 0#j8 to 0#j1000), or are there some "holes" in
coverage?"

This should be a rhetorical question. There is no tuner on
earth that will deliver power, i.e. "match" 0+j1000 ohms.
