ARRL is always correct!
The ARRL information on "extra loss due to VSWR" is may be incomplete in
that it may not the assumptions that underly the formula used for the
graphs.
The very concept that SWR necessarily increases loss from the matched line
loss figure is flawed.
Try the line loss calculator at
http://www.vk1od.net/tl/tllc.php to
calculate the loss in 1m of RG58 at say 2MHz with loads of 5 and 500 ohms
(both VSWR=10).
Now refer to the ARRL... does it explain the difference?
