You are absolutely correct. Would be interesting to have real time
monitoring of the match, field strength in relation to a standard 1/4
wave and real power delivered to the water stream. I am thinking this
is the dummies, dummy load. Or, the dummy load of the century ... could
sure use a 5KW ferrite core like he has, just sink the signal into a
"barrel of sal****er dummy load" ... would be nice to be have this
dis-proven and start discussing why.

Who knows, when the stream goes "live" perhaps the feedline "lights up"
as a radiator. As someone already pointed out, the repeater makes one
highly suspicious. I mean, is he line of sight from the repeater? How
far is he from the repeater? Why didn't he just choose direct contact?
Etc., etc. He certainly could have supplied us with better.

I just might write him and ask him for a new youtube video and different
test parameters.
