RCA phono jacks on Heath gear

[AL DOLGOSH]

The dielectric affects the velocity of propagation (and, of course, loss). With
1.0 being the speed of light, common polyethylene dielectric reduces it to
about 0.67. This is important only in calculating the phase of the signal at
any physical point along the line.
