Reg, what about Rho = SQRT(P-/P+) and SWR=(1+Rho)/(1-Rho)?

==================================
Cec, That's a calculation, merely arithmetic, not a measurement.

It applies only to a long line lossless line which does not exist but
Zo must be 50 ohms. And nobody has the foggiest idea where max-volts
and min-volts are located. And so the calculated information is
useless except for trolling on newsgroups. ;o)

Here are several VSWR measurement techniques. They are real they are
valid and I used them for years. VSWR is a *very* important parameter,
especially when dealing with high power systems.
