Hello all!  I am quite new to this list so I hope I'm not asking "dumb 
questions" but I am curious if anyone has used the touchstone viewer in 
hyperlynx.  I received a 16port S-parameter model and am curious what exactly 
all these plots tell me.
What is useful information to extract from this type of model?  For instance, I 
have selected S11, S22, S33, ..., S1616 ports to plot in dB vs frequency.  They 
call this the return loss, which is a measure of impedance matching?  I've been 
trying to find some information regarding all this, but haven't found anything 
that turns on the "oh yeah!" light.
