gEDA-user: Spice Transmission Line Simulation Question



I am using Spice 3f5, attempting to model a coax line.  I am a nubie
at this.  The lossless example uses two lines to model one coax.  Do I
need to do this with the ltra model?  It does not seem to make a
difference.

I get funny results.  I use 

ac dec 100 1 1000meg
plot db(v(4)/v(2))

I see what I expect up to about 18mHz and then it oscillates.

What am I doing wrong?
