New program SELFRES2.exe
--------------------------------------
Input data :

Length and diameter of solenoid.
Number of turns.
Conductor diameter
Length of line in which the coil is inserted.
Testing frequency.

Output data :

Coil self-capacitance.
Coil self-resonant frequency.
Choke impedance vs frequency.
Insertion loss of choke in dB.

Performance is based on a choke wound with coaxial cable of the same type as
the transmission transmission line in which it is inserted. Conductor
diameter is that of the coax outer. It behaves a single wire. Coax inner
diameter is of no consequence.

Choke insertion loss is a measure of the reduction in power radiated from
the feedline. But, despite the attention it attracts, actual power radiated
from the feedline WITH the choke will never be known because the power
radiated WITHOUT the choke is indeterminate.
