I am error prone as anyone reading many of my postings may attest. The
1955 edition of Terman`s "Electronic and Radio Engineering" is the
culmination of about 25 or more years of Terman`s work which was
checked, rechecked, then checked again. It`s stood the test of time ever
since its publication too. In Sect. 4-11 are answers to questions of
impedance matching to transmission lines.

I'll look up the book next time I am at Texas A&M.

I think Terman should be consulted straight away for a simple logical
cause of no reflections. It is called impedance matching. The match does
away with reflections.

Not directed at Richard, but I've seen the following logic used
often with EM waves.

What causes the match? The cancellation of reflections.

What causes the cancellation of reflections? The match.

Does anyone else detect the circular logic problem in the above?

Another one:

'rho' is zero because there are no reflections.

There are no reflections because 'rho' is zero.
