The SWR on your 380-ohm transmission line to the antenna is umpteen
times greater than that!

I'm not talking about SWR on the series section transformer,
Reg, I'm talking about on the 50 feet of RG-213. And it's
not "umpteen times", rather limited to about ten times.

Isn't it time you changed the name of your SWR meter?

Nope, for a G5RV with the nominal 70 feet of 50 ohm coax,
the SWR meter is indeed reading the SWR on the coax.
Remember, I'm not using a tuner. The coax from the G5RV
goes directly to the transceiver through the SWR meter.
I actually use my SWR meter to display the SWR.
