THIS is the way that you do it. The newer graphing boxes (most of them since AIM4170) will allow you to pre-calibrate a transmission line, and then see all results as if you were really up there. Get

We really gotta quit analyzing BOGs as if they were actually a Beverage. (This is a late response to a thread some months ago.) A BOG, laying on the ground, regardless of the "B" word represented in
