Carl, is there not an advantage to the 'classical' approach that as the
operating frequency goes down, the shunt reactance goes down, so there is
less loss in the resistors? I was taught that you use the minimum amount of
inductance that stops the parasitic, 'cos that gives least loss in the
suppressor.
