Ron,

There are 2 types of both networks (lowpass and highpass).

*C-L-C Pi* is a lowpass with the ability to ground one side of the capacitors
*L-C-L Pi* is a highpass with both sides of the capacitors hot
*C-L-C Tee* is a highpass with both sides of the capacitors hot and this is the common Tee tuner topology *L-C-L Tee* is a lowpass with the ability to ground one side of the capacitor

Another reason I suspect is the C-L-C pi network allows both the variable
capacitor rotors to be at ground potential.  This lets the shaft be at
ground potential making for a safer control that is not affected by the
proximity of the human operator's hand. No insulated shaft required either!

I am having a lot of trouble visualizing a C-L-C (usually called a "T" not a Pi) network where any part of either capacitor is grounded, please explain more.
