>Suppressor Q is directly related to Rp in Wes' measurements.
I think the relationship is well rooted in physics, but Q is a function of L
as well as R.
>Rp is undoubtedly related to VHF stage gain.
I think it's Rs that really counts, but the point is that it's the R that
matters. The Q in the *suppressor* isn't important. The Q in the *system*
is.
We went through this only a few weeks ago. Our discussion didn't pick up
after the server disruption.
