My 19th edition of the ARRL Antenna Book treats additional power loss
due to SWR on page 24-10.
Richard, I have an 18th edition, and the formula it gives does not
factor in the angle of the reflection, and so is an approximation.
I don't know if that applies to the 19th edition.
Back to my original post, I was not in search of a formula for an
exact solution, nor a reason to want an exact solution, but rather
whether anyone has seen the derivation of Michaels formula quoted in
QST Nov 97.
Thanks for your help.

Well, Owen, if you believe the expressions I presented in Reflections 2 are
approximate, then why do I get the correct answers?
