2 #37: Use a scope to measure the length and impedance of coax
Shows how to measure a cable's characteristic impedance with an oscilloscope using time domain reflectometry, often cited when transmission line questions come up.
3 I bought 1000 meters of wire to settle a physics debate
AlphaPhoenix recreates the Veritasium circuit geometry and measures it, offered as the hands-on companion to the debate over how energy travels along wires.
4 EEVblog 1439 - Analysing Veritasium's Electricity Misconceptions Video
Dave Jones's reply to the Veritasium electricity video, used in debates about how energy travels along wires and when transmission line thinking actually matters.
5 #196: How a Directional Coupler in an SWR meter works
Explains the working principle of a directional coupler using a homemade example like those inside SWR meters, cited in discussions of reflected power.
6 Understanding the Smith Chart
A Rohde and Schwarz explanation of the Smith chart, suggested alongside other tutorials for anyone learning RF impedance and matching.
7 What does "impedance matching" actually look like? (electricity waves)
An AlphaPhoenix experiment measuring how current actually travels along a wire, offered as an intuitive route into transmission lines and impedance matching.
