Video Not Working? Fix It Now

This video will set you free from this myth which has wasted countless hours of trimming antennas for a perfect match and probably killed a few hams falling off ladders doing so.

Correction at 2:36. Should say: "With no SWR the loss is about a half db. So the SWR adds another 1 db." In the video your host reversed those two figures.

Here's some great reading referred to in the video.
