Revisiting the Power Explanation
Keith wrote:
"Having another explanaton for this classic example lets one let go of "reverse power" which solves the challenges at the generator end." Bird says of its Model 43 Wattmeter: "Experience using the "Thruline" Wattmeter for transmitter tune-up, antenna matching, etc. (i.e. on operating problems), shows that the power ratio is as useful in practice as the VSWR." One can see reflected power disappear at the transmitter terminals as a match is made to the transmitter load. That eliminates stress on the transmitter from reverse power. Reverse power is as real as its Bird Wattmeter indication. Best regards, Richard Harrison, KB5WZI |
