To all,

Sainath addressed his question to me, but I am going on vacation
and don't have the time to answer it.  Could someone please 
give him a good explanation to his questions?  Thanks,

Arpad

Arpad,

This two T-lines vs one T-line mode distinction is confusing to me.
What makes the two T-lines support even or odd kind of modes? and the one
T-line support the TEM kind of modes?
Is it not possible to have TEM kind of mode propagation in a two T-line
system?
How would you define a MODE when it is meant even or odd mode ? and when it
is meant TEM mode?

Thanks,
Sainath
