Yes, a good technique. You have to do it at a frequency at which XL and XC dominate the impedance. At lower frequencies, where XL is small, (and G is small, but it is small at most frequencies), the impedance is dominated by R and XC, and is quite high and complex, not a small, pure resistance. -- Regards, John Woodgate, OOO - Own Opinions Only. http://www.jmwa.demon.co.uk Interested in professional sound reinforcement and distribution?
