Dear Sam,

As with all transmission line filters, there will be a repeating frequency
response. Remember that an open stub will turn into a short when its length
is 1/4, 3/4, 5/4 etc. of a wavelength. Of course as the frequency increases,
the loss of the line increases, so the Q and notch depth become less severe.

Yes, this performance is real.

Regards,

Paul
