But I'm afraid you are wrong. The meter correctly indicates SWR on the feedline when it is located at the antenna end of the line. ______________ PS: In this example the mismatch between the antenna and the line is the source of the reflection that results in system SWR. Convention is to state that the SWR belongs to the antenna, not the line -- although the added stress on components applies only to the line and tx, and not to the antenna. An ideal SWR meter will read that antenna reflection to have the same value when installed at either end of the line, or anywhere along its length (assuming a perfect 50 ohm line, and neglecting line loss).
