Are you talking about increasing suppression/restraint  by increasing 
resisistance, or by decreasing it?

Ian:  To illustrate your point for us, please design an Rs/Ls suppressor 
that would be suitable for use with a single 3-500Z--such as the W8JI and 
AG6K suppressors used for Wes' measurements.  To simplify calculations, 
please assume that Ls has zero ESR at 150MHz.  According to Wes, the 
nichrome Ls had 2.7 ohms of ESR at 150MHz.

Ian:  Do you feel that my discourse on parallel/series transformations on 
page 27 in the March 1989 issue of *QST* magazine was in error?  .If so 
in your opinion, where did I miss the boat?

thanks
