In my 100m of W551 with a 16+j0 load at 30MHz, the loss in one metre

of the transmitter power is already lost, the weighted effect of that
4.3% is nearer 1% of tx output.
What the heck is one "metre"? Netscape says that is misspelled and
probably should be corrected to "metro". Why aren't you guys on
the English system?
If the loss in each meter is 4%, wouldn't the loss in 100 meters
be 400%? What am I missing?
