Roger,

This comment smells much like an argument to me than a discussion. Yes, 
the variability has been known for a long time -- but mostly by those 
engineers working with these components in manufacturing. And because I 
had not been doing that kind of work, I slept through the significance 
of it with respect to common mode chokes, as I suspect Steve did. 
Indeed, my comments were specifically meant to NOT disparage his 
technical capability, which I respect, but simply to observe that his 
specific recommendations were not valid.
