>Subject: All About SWR and What It Really Means

>To all of my new ham friends here on the list...

>I attempted to send to the list a very thorough explanation of 
SWR, what it
>is, and how it affects your rig and the power getting to your 
antenna.
>However, my post was too long for this list and was rejected.  
Therefore,
>if anyone wants me to send you a copy of the article directly to 
you as an
>attachment, post back and let me know.  It is an excellent 
article.  There
>is some math in the article, which you can simply skip over if 
you want,
>but this article will give you the real truth about SWR, 
feedlines,
>matching your antenna, and the power that gets from the output of 
your rig
>to the antenna and radiated.  The article is in two parts; Part 1 
is titled
>"The Reflection Section," and gets pretty complex; Part 2 is 
titled:
>"Antenna SWR" and is a little shorter and frankly, les 
complicated and
>easier to read and comprehend, but to fully understand these 
issues, you
>really need to read both parts.  Given the exchanges I have read 
on the
>list since becoming a member, I thought this might be of interest 
to some
>of you.  So, if you want me to share it with you, let me know.
