>Basically, "reflected power" is not real.

The author of this false statement would be far better off 
learning how transmission lines work by studying the ARRL Handbook 
and ARRL Antenna Book than the manual for someone's SWR bridge. 

The concept of reflection energy on transmission lines is QUITE 
solid. To deny that is to deny Maxwell's Equations!  By the 
principle of superposition, the current, voltage, and power at any 
point on a transmission line are the sum of the forward and 
reflected current, voltage, and power at that point.
