May 4, 2019 at 0:15 comment added Chris K8NVH @PhilFrost-W8II - yes. If a spec sheet is available, I would prefer that of course. But if one were, say, considering the potential merits of a home brew line with 10 AWG wire spaced 55mm apart vs. 14 AWG with 644mm spacing (!!) (450 ohms vs 800 ohms), how would one begin to estimate which has better loss characteristics? There are calculators out there for many things, but I have not seen one like this.
