Steve,
Thanks for responding. I appreciate your insight. My background
is more theoretical and I wjould like to learn more about how SI
engineers view things.

I had not considered relating the characteristic impedance to a
concentration of flux. This seems reasonable for microstrip geometries.
I will give this some more thought.
You also mentioned striplines. Are you suggesting that the radiation or
coupling from a stripline is proportional to the characteristic impedance?
This seems anti-intuitive to me.
