Hi Jim,
Good to hear from you again.
Yet it is true! Some guys earlier were saying that they were using the tuner
inside of their radios feeding their amp.
And some claimed that the SWR would change when they changed the length of
cable without a tuner between the radio and amp.
Yesterday I ran this on my HP 8753 network analyzer.
