Technical and scientific discussion of amps, cables and other topics.

Incomplete

This technique measures many interesting characteristics, but alas, it is incomplete.

The effects of crystal lattice are totally overlooked. One needs a high-speed stimulus and real-time multi-GHz scope to see these things. A TDR can also be used.

Just put your cable into a bath of liquid nitrogen and remove it and see if any of these measurements change. They won't. However, the SQ will suck due to the broken crystal lattice. The only way to see this change is the equipment I mentioned. Been there, done that.
