Reg, G4FGQ observed on these pages long ago that an ordinary ohmmeter
would read Zo if connected to the end of an infinite line. He is right
of course.

He is right of course. Do you know of anyone that has an infinite length of
transmission line? Or an infinite anything? :-).

I may as soon as the line constructor is finished. Now, I can`t say that
I do, but for some purposes a line of random length which is terminated
in Zo serves as well as an infinite line of the same Zo.

A dissipation line, of course, must have enough length not to overload
the termination resistor at the end of the real line which does have an
end.

Some of these threads are PRETTY LONG, approaching infinity???
