Most ordinary prudent men that I know wouldn't characterize a one foot length of wire as a series circuit. More silly word games - when it is in a DC circuit the current is constant. When it exists in a simple series GHz circuit with reflections, the current is not constant. -- 73, Cecil http://www.w5dxp.com you don't even need reflections. a properly terminated piece of wire has a different current at every point along the wire. At any given instant. :-) ac6xg |
