I trust I haven't taken that too far out of context. And...I hope you
meant that Zo = Vf/If = -Vr/Ir, or something equivalent. Surely the
product of Vf and If is independent of Zo.
Yep, sorry, brain fart. Should have been a '/' instead of a '*'.
The point was (is) that (Vfwd + Vref) can be zero but in a feedline
with reflections Vfwd and Vref cannot be zero. Same for the component
currents.
