Phil,
It is indeed possible to match a very high SWR or even an open circuit
or a short.
That will be more probable on the higher frequency bands than on the
lower bands.

I got my second KAT500 tuner to use with my new backup rig and while setting up
and testing and tuning with my two different antennas I made a mistake.
I first observed the results displayed on the utility program operate page
where the tuned SWR was 1:1 and the bypass SWR was something like 54:1. I
immediately realized that something was not right and discovered that my coax
cable was not switched to the antenna but rather my dummy load but the cable to
the dummy load was disconnected (because I was moving things around).
