Hi Paul:

Thanks for the questions.  Will get back to you shortly.  Don't want you to
think I ignored your post.

Steve,

You may want to begin your discussions by presenting explanations of key
definitions. (e.g., "travelling forward voltage")  I (and perhaps others?)
are having difficulty in understanding the "movement" of voltage or power
"into" a transmission line.  Is it not true that the only thing "moving" in
an antenna system can be described in terms of current, the forward wave,
and the reflected wave?  Thanks.
