Agreed.

Quoting sm0aom@xxxxxxxxx:
You of course need an adjustable output network that can be adjusted to present a conjugate match. Otherwise, the mismatch loss at the junction between the output network and feedline will reduce the actual source power.

If the output stage is broad-band tuned and biased in Class A, it will absorb some or all of the reflected wave which may increase heat losses. In this case, the reflected wave is not re-reflected and will not show up as an increase of the forward reading.
