Walt, I can see that you have taken my comment as personal criticism. That

Hi Owen,

Please excuse the long delay in responding to your post of 4-8-07, 4:26 pm EDT. I have been away from the
computer since then, attending to personal chores that took priority over rraa.

I'm sure your comments weren't meant as a personal attack, and I accept your apology.

However, your consideration of statements appearing in Reflections as flawed on the assumption that the
concepts presented there concerning impedance matching apply only to lossless and distortionless lines, IMHO
is unfair, because it is not true.

For readers of your post who now may be questioning the reliability of statements appearing in Reflections,
I'm working on a more detailed discussion of the issue for clarification that I will enter on the rraa as a
new thread.
