Default Marine Radio RF Ground Question

A caveat though, the voltage across either element is the circuit Q times
the applied voltage. If you drive a 12volt Vcc amplifier (voltage swing of
24 volts) into a circuit with a Q of 10, there is 240 volts across the
series inductor and 240 volts across the series capacitor. So for your 12
volt output driver one would be wise to use 500 volt capacitors and
inductors.


Can you explain this. I though that for a parallel LC the impedence went
to infinite at resonance (f=1/2pi sqrt(LC)) so that Vin=Vout.

What am I missing?

Cheers
