Hi,

I've just become aware of the answers to these questions, but i thought i
might see if anyone agrees/disagrees with me.

What is the center of the Smith Chart when characteristic impedance
Zo= 50 + j50?

And what will the complex series impedance be for Rho = -1 in this case?

(Hint: it will NOT be a short!)

I suspect that the standard Smith Chart is incapable of handling
a Z0 = 50 + j50. On the standard Smith Chart, would the center of
the SWR spiral be 1 + j for a Z0 = 50 +j50? If so, that would make
for some interesting impedance transformations.
