A good observation.

How many modern research labs repeated the work that led to the
fundamental laws of physics in use today before they undertook the
design of new systems and products? *(Answer = Zero.)

Art Unwin: have you verified for yourself by mathematics and
experiment the "first principles" originating with the "masters" you
like to refer to here?

If not, why, by your posts do you expect others on r.r.a.a. to have
done so?

Oh my you are retreating already! I gave up the mathematical aproach
as you know
in favor of the question are computer programs relistically based on
Maxwells laws
And we are basing what the books say versus what the computer programs
say.
So now we await for somebody else to be the patsy for the group
