There are no problems. A very short coil behaves as a very short
transmission line.

I'm glad to know that I can substitute a coil of wire every time I
need a transmission line. So tell me, Reg, what
are the specs on the coil I'd need to make a transmission line
transformer to match 75 ohms to 325.33 ohms?

How about at least tell Reg the frequency?

Reg is old enough to pick his own frequency.

Every coil is a transmission line.

But not every transmission line is a coil.

An answer worthy of a zen master. If you keep this

Funny you should say that. Made me think of the (not really correct)
"zen archery" philosophy of defining the target as being wherever the
arrow strikes. So the arrow always hits the target.

In reading this thread I find that line of reasoning familiar.
