Not if it is strictly resistive.

Of course, it works for the purely resistive.
R+j0 is the conjugate of R-j0

Cec and Co., I keep telling you it's a waste of bandwidth talking about
'conjugate matches'. In the transmitter/transmission line context conjugate
matches do not exist because nobody knows what the internal impedance of the
transmitter actually is.

There's never any need to know. Of what possible use would it be if you knew
it.?

Except provide a topic of conversation for this newsgroup. ;o)

If nobody knows what the internal impedance of a transmitter
actually is, how do you know it's not conjugate matched? :-)

Because nobody knows. And it wouldn't make slightest difference to anything
if anyone did.

And nobody knows why I keep answering your questions either. ;o)

Lord Kelvinator is mighty proud of you, bucko.

You didn't answer any question, you responded - big difference.

We at least get the varietal name of the grape you are knocking back.
