"...Let's allow the reflected power to increase all the way to <gasp> 10
watts! At that point, your SWR would be about 2 to 1. Sounds pretty bad, but
surely if you were stranded in the desert and had to use your KX3 and a wire
to get help, you'd be happy to have a match this good...(etc.)"
From memory now, at 2 to 1...feedline voltage nodes and current nodes can
double -- no small thing when power is 1500 watts; can stress antenna system
components.
