I think it was a case of hold the feed line, and depending on how long the WAAAATT!!! lasted before the #ell, detemind how much RF was being produced.
Sorry couldnt resist that.

Reading the threads on this issue leads me to ask the question: other than the calorimeter that Doc Kirkby has suggested, and yes that method is beyond the scope pof most of us hams, how did the early discoverers and users/ appliers of this phenomemom arrive at the the output figures that they did?  By guess or by golly?  Or by mentods we haave come ot ignore?

Just my curious .02.,
