not any more, he defined it just the other day, equilibrium==isotropic.

No David, I just went along with your interpretation of same in the
U.S.
For my self I will stick to equilibrium as stated in any dictionary.
So I accept your terms as one to use in the US electrical arena
because you get upset as it may sometimes be equivalent to
equilibrium. But I am not going to fight that battle.
Personally, I am beginning to think hams mix the terms resonant and
equilibrium or is it just the U.S. One day some body is going to say
gottcha that is inevitable with so many hits
but that is not one of them.

there is no reference for 'equilibrium' to be applied to electromagnetic
radiation. is just doesn't exist. so you have now given up all your
credibility by not sticking with what you admitted was an equivalent of your
term 'equilibium' in 'isotropic'.
