Dear Ed,

  You are overreacting to my opinion. It is my opinion that making the IMD
measurement appear 6dB better is a form of whitewash. As I previously very
respectfully stated, I would never report IMD to one of my customers in that
manner, nor have I ever seen it reported that wasy in any commercial publication
or engineering book.
