Is it not true with short pieces of coax between the exciter and amplifier
some times it has to be trimmed especially with the higher frequencies, or
am I completely wrong and misunderstanding your post and you mean between
transmitter and aerial, teach me:-)

All these years, I've been believing people like Tom, Carl and Ian and even
myself that the SWR on  a tranismission line, is, other than the change
caused by losses, independent of length. Now I read in the QRP column of the
October CQ that you should trim your transmission line length for minimum
SWR. 
Now, if it's in CQ, it must be right, OK?
The same edition has a one tube CW rig with no mention of the fact that a
Tri tet oscillator having the cathode tuned to thw crystal frequency when
the plate  is so tuned is a notorious production of a 'rock crusher' signal
- the crystals  don't last too long.
Now, if it's in CQ, it must be right, OK?
But people like Tom and Carl and even Rich Measures never said so!!
OK, so sarcasm is the lowest form of wit....
