Accurate calculation of RF resistance definitely is the tough part. There
is more than one set of formulas from different sources for calculating
this and the results don't agree. If I were forced to choose, I'd probably
stick with the formulae in Terman's books. Steve T. correctly outlined
the general procedure. I too will have a look at the Murphy file that Ian
suggested.
