Thanks.

The detectors are classified as power detectors. What effect would that
have?

If it would be the same then the open would be zero.

The question is: With a short stub on the detector will the open or
the short represent zero phase angel?

Assuming the phase angle is between the voltages:

The phase angle between Vfor and Vref at an open circuit
is zero (all the energy is in the E-field).

The phase angle between Vfor and Vref at a short circuit
is 180 degrees (all the energy is in the H-field).
