(42S) PPOL Loss in a radiofrequency link due to the antennas polarization (mis)match
You could move the subroutine at LBL 02 to end of the program.
This makes the LBL 01 and the jump GTO 01 obsolete.

Also it looks as if the common denominator:

\(
\begin{align}
(1 + ??1^2) \times (1 + ??2^2)
\end{align}
\)

could be extracted.

Thus the following lines:
Code:
1
RCL+ "R1L2"
÷
1
RCL+ "R2L2"
÷
… have to be executed only once after the addition of the numerators.

Currently after this line:
Code:
52 +

RE: (42S) PPOL Loss in a radiofreq. link due to the antennas polarization (mis)match
Dear Thomas,

You are 100% right.
I could save many program lines by doing like your suggestion.

I always see myself focusing on solving the antenna engineering problem, and forgetting to optimize my code...

(and, it is true that sometimes I keep the source code as similar as possible to the written equation, to be easy to recover in future what I have done in the program... but, I fully agree that this is not an efficient procedure from programming standpoint, neither an elegant way of working.)

I will revise my source code considering your kind suggestion and replace the old one.

Again, thanks for your extreme kindness on looking into my simple code, and for your advice!!!

Warm regards,

Emilio

Dear Thomas

I have revised the code according to your suggestion and the size has been reduced to 180 bytes.

I would still need to move my subroutine to the end of the code...

Warm regards
