Did you really write that? The standing waves are a consequence of a
standing wave ratio of greater than 1:1?



An IMPEDANCE mismatch on a TRANSMISSION LINE results in standing waves.


First you say the standing waves are a result of the SWR being greater
than 1:1, now you say it is a result of the impedance mismatch. I'm
*so* confused....

I'm getting the impression you are being water boarded and will say
anything you think will make it end! Give us a location and we will
save you!
