It would be relatively easy to use the SWR meter driving
current from an MFJ-259 to control the ATU motor.

Cecil, I keep telling you, there's no such thing as an SWR meter.

The folks over on sci.physics.electromag disagree.

Terman says in his 1955 edition, page 99:
"The standing-wave ratio S is one means of expressing the magnitude of
the reflection coefficient;---."

This, Terman illustrates can go either way via formulas. Rho is
convertible to SWR and SWR is convertible to Rho.

Why should an indication proportional to SWR not be so calibrated and
called ?
