No, it wouldn't.

You're not looking at "delay" per se as in propogation delay
down a transmission line. You're simply looknig at the fact
that at those wavelengths, the line is acting as a simple
damped resonator.

In other words, all the bobonsense you read about lines
ignores that they are behaving just like a bass reflex
with a whopping big port, a tiny volume, and a lot of
damping.


That's no fun.

I never tried to make one, but I guess they were interesting to me.
