Terman says in his 1955 edition, page 99:
"The standing-wave ratio S is one means of expressing the magnitude of

This, Terman illustrates can go either way via formulas. Rho is
convertible to SWR and SWR is convertible to Rho.

Why should an indication proportional to SWR not be so calibrated and
called ?
