You have a good sense of humor, Grant, and around here you need it!!!
Happy St. Patty's Day....I'm off for some Irish Whiskey in a wee bit...I
wish I could work that TY5 3.506.06 before I go, but 'tis not in the cards
right now from N. CA.

Subject: RE: [TenTec] Further Orion Sub Receiver -- Some results
I guess the question is: is THD measured in voltage or power?
Voltage. Sinisa was correct in the computation of "THD". The "% harmonic
distortion" number I used in my first post, and Lankford used in his
paper,
was based on power.
So to prevent any further bad grades on the subject, I will publish the
results I get tonight in units of "THD", and even try to take into account
at least the 3rd harmonic.
No attempt at a good deed EVER goes unpunished :-)
