Thanks for reminding us that an understanding of basics is more
valuable than all the bell and whistles added to the black boxes.

You can determine the sign of the reactance by simply tuning higher in
frequency. IF the reactance increases it is inductive, if it DECREASES, it
is capacitive reactance. Remember the basic formula for inductive is Xl =
2Pi fL, while the inverse formula is for capacitive reactance, thus it
decreases with frequency increase.
