Hans, because of real world losses, in a system with only one matching network, instead of a lossless system-wide conjugate match we can only have a conjugate match at a single reference plane. In most amateur systems, the matching plane is located at the Z0-match at the tuner input. My question is: Given that maximum power transfer occurs at the conjugate match reference plane, in a typical amateur radio system, where should that matching plane be located? (1) At the tuner input, (2) At the antenna feedpoint, (3) Somewhere else
