Default Reflection on Resistive loads

Just a nit: You said:

If there are reflections, the voltage
and current are in phase only every 1/4 wavelength.


Actually, if there are reflections, the voltage and current ar NEVER in
phase.


So how does a 1/2WL piece of transmission line driving a
50 ohm load wind up with the voltage and current in phase
no matter what the SWR?
