There's no such thing as a 100% efficient tuner.

Cecil, not a very surprising statement.
There's nothing which is 100% efficient.
What is the typical efficiency of a typical tuner with a typical
antenna. Does it differ significantly from 100% ? Yes or no?

Some ARRL publication said the losses in a tuner average about
0.5 dB. If true, a tuner indeed reduces efficiency by about 12%.
