re : resistance vs impedence

[F5UL]

Hello Ken,
in your exemple despite the SWR staying the same the curent is not the same :
at r=6+j16 the curent will much ùuch higher than with r=48+j146 !
Result : you will have more loss with the hight curent and the result will be less field intensity in the fist situation than in the second !
