Helpers for 02: Electric Dipole

Images: Dipole  Lab      :   MX55-Dipole Lab

Experimental Notes: Toggle Input Impedance on MX55

Starting with lab 03: Begin sending electronic lab reports.

Important details:

(1) You should save your lab report before sending it.

Print the document off using the cutepdf writer and send your lab as a pdf file.

If your name is Kilay Tulizm then , for example, save lab 03 as lab03KT.pdf. Do not include non-alphabetic characters or spaces.

(2) In the subject line of your email, you should have the same thing. For example: Subject : Lab03KT . This will insure that the lab email is correctly detected by my email filter.

(3) Send your lab as one single document in  ".pdf" format only (use cutepdf writer to do this)
