What you say is completely true, but in the case where you have a less than perfect match at the load side, having a matched source will reduce the edge smearing caused by the reflections off of that the load that would otherwise reflect back off of the source... -Chuck Harris _______________________________________________ time-nuts mailing list [email protected] https://www.febo.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/time-nuts
