I didn't say it had been resolved. Those guys argue
about real-world class-C amplifiers. I didn't want
to discuss sources at all but Keith led me down the
primrose path. :-)

The small part of the argument that I can resolve is
the ideal class-A voltage and current sources. But
perhaps that resolution will spill over into the
more complicated configurations. I don't recall
anyone else considering what effect interference
has on energy redistribution inside an RF source.

But I indeed do have it figured out for ideal linear
voltage and current sources. Not only does it agree
with the results of other valid analysis methods,
but it answers the question: What happens to the
reflected energy when it is incident upon an ideal
linear source?
