Here's a simple statement he could have made about reflected

In a conjugately matched system using lossless transmission line:

Source Power = Forward Power - Reflected Power = Load Power


Let's face it Cecil, that man was obviously "being paid by the word"--in
our capitalistic society--I can understand that! (However, this paper
appears to have been done to "justify" "his antennas" which he was
selling at the time. Indeed, it reminds me, very much, of how db has
been abused ... I'd say, in this regard, he did a nice job of
"Barnum-ing it!" And, was wholly motivated by financial gains. LOL )

And, in that "reality", 100 words are worth 10x as much as 10 words ...
and, any inaccuracy will just be justification for more words (and more
profit) on another day ... or, more obsfucation ...
