Cecil, please read me in the first paragraph. By Steve's own words he says the
re-reflected wave must equal the reflected wave.

No, he says that is a fallacy. He says the re-reflected wave equals the
reflected wave multiplied by the reflection coefficient. His example is:
reflected power = 33.33W, re-reflected power = 8.33W

But when the system is matched the reflection coefficient is 1.0.

But if rho = 1.0, then tau = 2.0. Wasn't it 1.5 just a minute ago?
