Thank you. That is a useful resource to know of.

Thanks, that is probably what I want.

I am basically looking to find a paper on waveguide calibration of VNAs
with 1/8 & 3/8 wavelength offset shorts which I believe was done at an
Australian standards lab. I had no idea what lab, who done the work,  when
etc.

Someone has kindly sent me a private email with a possible author who is
unfortunately deceased, working in a group which is now almost non
existant.

I was asking about the 50 Ohm load just to try to find out what lab done
those sorts of measurements.  I am actually in the UK on the other side of
the world to Australia, so don't need to get a load calibrated.
