The SWR on the 75 Ohm line will be 1.5:1, but if the line is a
quarter-wave or odd multiple long, the 50 Ohm load impedance is
transformed to 75*1.5 or 112.5 Ohms - that's an SWR(50) of 2.25:1.
In fact any line length between 0.15 wavelength and 0.35 wavelength
will transform the load impedance to produce an SWR(50) greater than 2:1.
My, my -- some of us do work pretty hard to find worst case scenarios.
