The impedances of higher order modes must be kept below certain limits to prevent emmittance blowup and possible beam loss due to coupled bunch instabilities. A mathCAD program was set up to perform growth rate calculations. Results were compared to ZAP calculations for the non-degenerate case and then extended to the degenerate case where the radial modes are summed.
