OK, if we shine a flashlight at a mirror the light bounces back and what
ever is caught by the reflector will be reflected. Take away the reflector and the reflection just keeps going. If someone can tell me what the hot filament does perhaps I can understand what happens in the finals, or whatever. tnx Hank WD5JFR "Cecil Moore" wrote in message ...

The reflected waves obey the laws of physics. The kicker is that we don't know (and apparently cannot directly measure) the source impedance. What the reflections can do is modify the designed-for load line through superposition of the forward and reflected waves. Modification of the designed-for load line is not desirable and, if unprotected, can cause over-voltage, over-current, or phase problems. -- 73, Cecil http://www.qsl.net/w5dxp -----= Posted via Newsfeeds.Com, Uncensored Usenet News =----- http://www.newsfeeds.com - The #1 Newsgroup Service in the World! -----== Over 100,000 Newsgroups - 19 Different Servers! =----- |
