  • Abstract
    The commenter argues that the treatment of a uniform plane wave impinging obliquely on a lossy half plane in the above-titled paper by D.A. de Wolf (see ibid., vol.34, no.4, p.22-6, Aug.1992) is fundamentally incorrect. In reply, de Wolf agrees with the commenter´s objections, but points out that they pertain only to his first, heuristic, derivation. He then examines why his apparently absurd derivation yielded the right answer.<>
