Hi Finn,

Not all the values are bad, but there are a couple I looked at which are 
ugly. The problem I have is the chart itself is geared toward minimal 
caps needed. Using minimal caps is fine to save cash, but it comes with 
a sacrifice.

I think if there is to be a chart which coilers will use, it should show 
poor to excellent ratings for a given NST size for the basic parameters 
and then the coiler can make the choice or at least ask the advice of 
the list "before" they learn it the hard way. The chart is really only 
useful for one cap type anyway which is a little silly and is why I 
prefer just do the math myself.

Take care,
Bart
