Charles,

One of the papers I refer to is on my web site as well as That of Doug
Brooks.  It is titled "90 Degree Corners, The Final Turn".

The measurements were made in the lab at UMR.

If there is data out there that contradicts this, it would be good to share
it.

It's not hard to take a near field probe and run it along traces that are
on outer layers of a PCB with solid planes and get similar answers.
