The Resistive SWR Bridge

In reply to G8TMV:

Hi Colin,

it is even a bit more complicated - impedance of the output stage of the transmitter varies with supply voltage (battery powered) - and can be different for each band and another rf power value setting.

I measured it using a directional coupler, differences related to real 50ohm are not negligible - even at a factory tcvr!

I think very simple and reliable is then also always good to find the maximum antenna current.
