Default Question on SWR

I realized my error!

In my budget I counted the extra line loss caused by SWR twice:

- first time when I have added 1 dB to the loss of the forward and the return
wave

- second time when I took some power out of the antenna (to account for an SWR
of 4.5) and delivered it back to the transmitter

ARRL is always correct!

Sorry for the useless noise
