This Akabak script simulates a tall BR with a RCF L18P400 at the bottom of the box and ports above. The hight of the box is just enough to stack the 18", a 10" midrange and a horn on top. I wanted to simulate a good port placement.

I started off by doing a WinISD simulation, a -3 dB bass shelf, giving about 280 liter volume.

Taking all the parameters to Hornresp, I could almost simulate the box using a stub. Anyway, exporting to akabak gave me a quick start into akabak.

I made a few mistakes. Shorting a vent to 0 is the trick for ending a section.

Hopefully this code can be reused
