[Lf] Complex Impedance Analyzer

[Frank Gentges]

Hi,

While at Dayton I stopped by the booth and talked to the technical gurus
that make the CIA box we have used from time to time.  They said the HF
version would go down to 100 kHz with limited errors as is.  They
modified a few to improve the small residual errors but do not like to
do that because it introduces larger errors at the top end at 50 mHz.

We had observed that at 136 kHz the 1 kHz steps were a bit course and we
needed .1 kHz steps to resolve the antenna tuning.  They have a newer
version with more bells and whistles (and more money) but it tuned .1
kHz steps.  They picked it up and demonstrated that.  They called it the
"VIA" rather than the "CIA".
