[TowerTalk] SWR question

[Darrel J. Van Buer]

But if feedline losses are so bad that the extra loss from high SWR is 
significant, you've got a bigger problem in the feedline.  Extra loss is 
below 1 dB in a low loss line until SWR exceeds 10:1
With 3:1 SWR, you don't get to an extra dB until feedline loss is 
already 4 dB
AT 2:1 SWR it never adds more than half a dB for ANY feedline.
