* Input Parameters
* Calculated Parameters
* To view component values, go to Control Panel and select Operation tab and \ncheck "Generate Expanded Listing", run simulation, go to View menu on task \nbar, select SPICE Error Log, and read values on displayed list. \nNote: Loss value in dB is shown as value for dummy element R4.
* Dummy element used to display \nLoss value in SPICE Error Log
* Waveform Arithmetic: Plot sqrt((v(out)*I(R1))/(v(in)*I(R6))) for frequency response\nand V(n002)/I(R2) for input impedance vs frequency.\n \nNote: LT SPICE only plots in voltage format so sqrt used to convert to power format.\nR5 and R6 are dummy elements used to calculate the input power to the circuit \nsince the input and output impedances are different and powers must be used to \nplot loss versus frequency.

* R5 and R6 are dummy elements added to facilitate plotting input/output \npower ratios. The elements do not affect the circuit operation.
