I can find no such request in my file.... Anyway since you mentioned the
Rocky Point effect...a term I've NEVER used..I would consider the
possibility that you have already read the answer. John and Dick have
both explained this effect in detail.
I have made several

I have and so have others. I dont care to do it again just to prolong
your misery and waste even more time on it.
Why dont you just ask Eimac if it is so important to you?
OK. Call me dense. Explain one more time. If necessary a

They have been explained as much as any others...your reading retention
must be pretty selective.

Instead of continuing to ask circular questions which appear to have no
real purpose....again why not just call Eimac and talk to an engineer.
You give me the distinct impression that you wouldnt believe them or
anyone else anyway but it should at least keep you busy for awhile.
With my "real" job ramping up to 60-70 hrs a week I can no longer waste
my time playing word games. After a long day of working on 36-39GHz SSB
and digital xcvrs all I want in the evenings is a cold beer and a good
book.
