CSA of an alpha transmission line

andrewmc · 24th January 2007, 01:18 AM

I've read here that transmission lines are very tolerant of changes in cross sectional area. I've just finished reading Rick Schultz' paper on alpha transmission lines, and it suggests a very specific value for the CSA of each line.

Does anyone have an idea of what happens if you, say, cut the CSA in half for a given alignment?

The bass output drops significantly.
