Call it a simple example. I would assume in a real system multiple pulses
are would be highly undesirable and eliminated by discharging the line at
the end of the first pulse. Maybe I should have said 100W pulse generator
with on output impedance of 0 or infinity, and a lousy dummy load. At a
lower power you could hook up a 'scope to the middle of the line and see the
multiple reflections.

Hi Tarmo,

Was this a speculation or borne of actual experience? (I am not
talking about the obvious, exceptionally low power.)

I understand the significance of what you wrote following it,
.0027 W is reflected, etc, etc.
but in my experience with radars (megawatt models that I serviced,
calibrated and offered formal training in), this does not happen.
