A lossless line infinite in extent is the typical definition that

or it is terminated in a lossy resistor (and the loss is suddenly in
everone's face, full and foursquare).

How long are you going to wait to finish the energy budget to measure
IF there is missing energy from an infinite line?

73's

infinitely long of course. i think it was you who added the infinite
part. i don't care as long as it is not losing cecil's precious
energy.
