Cecil, if the S-parameteri analysis is applied correctly the results of the

Steve's use of the equations 9 thru 15 is incorrect. I've proved that these
equations do not work in general. Referring to my analysis, please show me
where I went wrong, if that's your position.

I thought I did that, Walt. Your V1 and Dr. Best's V1 are NOT the same quantity.
Your V2 and Dr. Best's V2 are NOT the same quantity. It is no wonder that you
didn't get the same results. The 1WL 50 ohm line in Dr. Best's example is
absolutely irrelevant. Calculating anything on that line is a waste of effort.

Cecil, it seems like we're going around in cirles.

If Steve's equations are valid they should work in general. It doesn't matter
whether we use the values from his T network section that comes later, or the
values in my example that he attempts to prove incorrect.

What does matter is that the equations must deliver the correct answers
regardless of the values used in the equations. I have proved that valid values
plugged into his equations don't yield the correct answers.

Cec;il, why are you avoiding trying to understand the basis for his erroneous
concept of adding forward and reflected voltages to obtain total forward
voltage? You don't even respond to my discussion on this point.
