For techies - Potential Flaw in Zs/ADS calculations?

Im lost for words john, never seen anything like it Closest i got to that was when i took my city and quilds "C" course, nowadays would not know where to start

Despite appearances, it really is only very simple/basic algebra. Assuming you have some background in algebra (even O-Level/GCSE would probably be enough), if you sat down and took your time, thinking carefully, going through it 'step by step' (i.e. pausing at each equals sign), you would probably be able to get to grips with it (if you really wanted to ).

Kind Regards, John

I think the logic was a bigger problem than the algebra for me! Most of my problems were not knowing which V, I, and R to use in my ohm's law!

Enjoyed it though, in a perverse kind of way. Maybe someone should lock this thread so we never get reminded of it in future...

Yes, I agree - as I said to Rocky, daunting though it might look to those not used to such things, the algebra was really very straightforward and 'basic'.

Of course, the algebra I was originally trying to do (with several additional variables), although again algebraically 'straightforward', was so complex as to be a total (and never completed!) nightmare!
