I intended to delete more of my post than I did. I appologize.
John ON4UN and '2RK Bob made good points.
The next issue of Communications Quarterly will have an article on
Conjugate Matching.
Jack Belrose (VE2CV) and I worked on the paper they are publishing. It
covers tuners and PA's.
QROking (I thought that was a prankster, but now I am not so sure) said
something about the formula or graphs for voltage sag not working. If
the transformer or power lines have a high series impedance or
resistance, the amount of capacitance needed for optimum performance
will decrease greatly.
Of course voltage regulation will be poor in such a system!!
No point in using a whole lot of capacitance if the transformer or power
line has less than optimum performance.
