A system may have low distortion for a steady-state signal, but not on sudden transients.
Like the Robinson projection, it is a compromise intended to produce good quality maps with low distortion overall.
Both of these changes reduced the already low distortion.
The 10-22 is considered to have good image quality (sharp and low distortion) and build.
It is difficult to approach 100-percent modulation while maintaining low distortion with this system.
This stimulated development emphasis towards low distortion far beyond the nominal needs of a single voice channel.
And besides, that matching doesn't buy you anything anyway except lower distortion - which, in a tube amplifier, is not what you're looking for.
The resulting conic map has low distortion in scale, shape, and area near those standard parallels.
This allows lower distortion at the cost of increased computation.
The purpose is to present the land masses more centrally and with lower distortion.
