SWR Meters make You Stupid!

I had to read it a couple times to sift through the embellishments, but it is an interesting read.. the writer presents some interesting concepts, and it's certainly true that transmission lines are a science unto themselves. I would agree that it should be a sticky.. I just wish it was a little more concise.
 
Yeah, it was probably embellished more than it needed.
Some people like to impart a bit of humor/embellishment to their works; Makes them feel like it will be better received by the reader.
And, some authors think it makes them wittier.
(As for myself; I don't care for embelishments, just the facts. And if I can't handle that then, too bad for me)
But actually it is a good article as it sheds some light on the mystery of the transmission line purpose/effect.

    Hello gentlemen and Ladies. I have the dreaded RCI-2990 receive issue where my radio gets distorted when people get close to my location. I found the C90 Capacitor, but I can not for the life of me find the C89 capacitor. Can or does anyone have a picture of the exact location of C89 ? Thank you in advance, Wes
