Hi Mike et al....
What you say is absolutely correct. However when one talks about the
phase shift
through a circuit or transmission line, it is assumed that the same
property is used at
both ends; i.e current or voltage. Frank's blanket statement that the
phase shift through
a 90 degree line is always 90 degrees requires some qualification. Also,
the statement
that it exists for ALL multiples of 90 degrees is incorrect. It only
applies to ODD
multiples of 90 degrees.
