This concept is foreign to me, so if I'm wrong I'd like to have some proof

that
the source impedance can have any influence on SWR.

Walt,

I don't think the source impedance has any effect on SWR. In fact I have
changed the source impedance and saw no change in SWR. But Since tha SWR
meter is a really dumb bunny, I wonder of the meter can be mislead by a
reactive source impedance that forces the current to be out of phase with
the voltage. Perhaps a case where the source and load both are reactive?
