   Publishers "stop using high-voltage power lines as cover image for transmission line theory textbooks" challenge... The worst part is that you can't really say it's wrong, when a power line is more than 200 kilometers long, it's a transmission line in both senses of the word... (see Ferranti effect)

     @niconiconi hm does that mean a 6000/4 km stub on a 50Hz power line with no load would behave like a perfect short?

     @niconiconi i mistakenly bought a used book about power transmission when looking for TL theory texts :(
