Here's the original quote [Ken]:
"When the correct matching is done, the antenna works as an impedance mathcing
network that matches the output stages impedance to the radiation resistance."
Yes, I stand by and have just in another part of the thread once again
explained that indeed the impedance is matched. ie: If you make a small
change in the impedance in any direction the power decreases. Increasing
the resistance is the obvious one. The other three are because the
protection circuits act. The OP had a completed transmitter he was
connecting to a length of wire.
