Re[2]: primary angle



Original poster: Illicium Verum <sebas@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>


Hello Bart,

Would you like to provide me the formula for calculating the coupling? Even tough I like your program, I like to calculate things by hand. Just because I learn more about coupling that way.


Kind regards,

Sebastiaan.
