Paralleling Transmission Lines

What happens when two paralleled transmission lines are of different
lengths? How does one analyze such a problem? For instance, what
impedance is seen at the source when a 30 foot run of 450 ohm ladder-
line is paralleled with a 20 foot run of the same line when the common
load is 100+j200 ohms? Will EZNEC handle such a problem? What if the
two different length paralleled transmission lines are not the same VF
and/or not the same Z0? Does superposition work for such a problem?

tnx & 73, Cecil, w5dxp.com
I'm puzzled, Cecil. I wouldn't think a simple linear system like this
would be difficult for you to analyze. (Or perhaps you do know how,
and are only testing to see if others do also.) With respect to
R.R.A.A., under what circumstances would such a configuration ever
arise in practice? And...why would you think to use an antenna
modeling program to analyze a linear circuits problem? Why not pick a
tool appropriate to the task?
Cheers,
Tom
