i don't agree with his ideas on swr Eddie, sounds like cmc on the coax braid to me,

He's tuning a 1/4wave coax jumper for no reactance, the near infinite open circuit impedance at the far end is inverted to a short circuit through the 1/4wave coax,

if he was tuning for 1/2wave he would short circuit the far end so that short will be repeated as a short circuit with no reactance at the analyzer when the coax is an electrical 1/2wave.
