Finished the first round of bandpass filter design simulations.
Red line: original design target. This was a simulation of the filter in isolation on RO4350B.
Blue line: Same layout with the RO4350B swapped for FR408HR. This shows the impact of dielectric loss (copper roughness and plating ignored for both simulations).
Green line: final layout imported from KiCAD gerbers including connector launches and feedlines. Fc shifted down from about 10.2 to 9.85 GHz which is quite …

#basicinstructions How to evaluate technological advancements
We've christened these the Misery Socks. The yarn is in a hideous colourway that just didn't come over when I bought it online. It also broke several times 😡 I started them when Mum was in her care home and would take them in with me when I visited. Inevitably they frequently had to be put down in a hurry so I ended up with dropped st and mistakes. Then we got cats who wouldn't leave the yarn alone, so I've only just finished them today. Glad to see them go.
