LOL! Doppler shift with a single cycle.

"Single pulse", not "single-cycle pulse". There is a difference.

Btw, you posted earlier asking about Lorentz transformations for velocity in an arbitrary direction. I posted a derivation of the homogeneous Lorentz transformations for arbitrary relative velocity and orientation of the two coordinate systems.

You did reply to that post, but without comment on the derivation. Since you've repeated your original request about Lorentz transformations for velocity in an arbitrary direction, perhaps you didn't understand it. Do you want to go over the derivation I provided in steps so I can explain it to you?
