You're welcome. Were 'grunt' models what you were after? What you doing?

Yes, and you can't have frequency dependent propagation velocity without frequency dependent loss, and vice versa.

Actually, if you want to split hairs, and since you can't have a cable without a connector, connectorization does introduce nonlinear IP products if you look down far enough. HP Journal had an article on this effect, IIRC nickel was the bad actor.

does that include a lossless transmission line made up of Z(f) and C(f) elements?

Yeah, and if you apply enough power, you'll melt the copper.

Nickel oxide makes tunnel junctions really easily. Unlike copper oxide, it works quite literally from DC to daylight. Cheers Phil Hobbs

That sort of thing matters in connectors used in cell towers and such, where PIM levels like -160 dB are expected. Apparently there are magnetic effects in platings, as well as contact stuff. -- John Larkin Highland Technology, Inc jlarkin at highlandtechnology dot com http://www.highlandtechnology.com Precision electronic instrumentation Picosecond-resolution Digital Delay and Pulse generators Custom laser drivers and controllers Photonics and fiberoptic TTL data links VME thermocouple, LVDT, synchro acquisition and simulation

someone who posts under a constantly changing alias is at a substantial dis= advantage when he wants to claim to have been here for a long time. We did = have our resident idiots early on, but my feeling is that you weren't one o= f them.=20 <snip> =20

It's not a proxy I use. But then I do know how my name is spelled on my bir= th certificate and my passport, and in my publications in the peer-reviewed= literature.
