? 2:1.
> Are there standing waves between source and load ?
? no. Source Z matters not a jot. The standing waves are between the
transmission line that constitutes the SWR meter ahd the load. .
>How much power is on the load ?
? About as much as you got
>Where is the lost power gone ?
>
? It was simply undeliverable.
