If you have a resonant antenna, supposedly all of the power is radiated.

(SWR 1:1)

If you have a nonresonant antenna, some of the power is reflected back to
the transmitter.

(SWR 1:1)

If you connect a tuner and it is "tuned", none of the power is reflected
back to the transmitter.

(SWR at transmitter 1:1, at antenna still 1:1)

Obviously it has to go somewhere.

Where?

If you are designing a tuner, where would you design it to go?

Thanks in advance

Geoff.
