You're simply looknig at the fact       that at those wavelengths, the line is acting as a simple       damped resonator.              In other words, all the bobonsense you read about lines       ignores that they are behaving just like a bass reflex       with a whopping big port, a tiny volume, and a lot of       damping.              --       +--------------------------------+       + Dick Pierce |       + Professional Audio Development |       +--------------------------------+              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
