Dear all,
I wonder if dBF is 20 log C or 10 log C ?
My personal guess is that if VA= V² Z and Z

My personal guess is that if VA= V² Z and Z=sC then I suppose
dBF should

If you want to stop mu being translated back to m don't insert it
from the symbols font. Most normal windows fonts have it as

Another interesting thing -- not the same as this -- is what happens to
the upper-case Omega some documents use instead of spelling out ohms;
some software turns it into W. I could have SWORN I'd see a 1000 W
resistor on a modem card!

SI units are originally described in The International System of

Don, you're probably right in that it went the other way.

mOhm means milli Ohm NOT mega Ohm
mHz is milliHertz
KHz is kilo Hertz (note magnifier is larger
Just don't talk to some old purchasing types about k.
It doesn't mean base 1,000 in purchasing land. More
like base 1,000,000. I ordered some resistors in
qty = 1k. It got kicked back to my supervisor because
