Cecil, how about doing me a favor and humor me a little.

How about solving my example, the one that Steve took from Reflections and then
trashed. To repeat, 100 w, 70.71 v source, 50-ohm lossline terminated in a 3:1
mismatch and perfectly matched at the input with a rho = 1.0.

Vfwd = 81.65 v and Vref = 40.83 V. Please solve this using Steve's method of
solution, Eqs 5 thru 13.

If this problem can't be solved with Steve's method, his method must be invalid,
not general.
