Of course I understand that both L and C are distributed. But the C in
the transmission line formula isn't a longitudinal C like the C across
an inductor; it's the (distributed, of course) shunt C between the two
conductors of the transmission line. I don't believe you can justify
claiming that the C across an inductor is even an approximation for the
C from the inductor to whatever you consider to be the other
transmission line conductor.

Hi Roy,

Any answer, even if just an educated guess, is better than giving no
answer at all. No matter how far off.
