Then you have 500 ohms out of the transmitter into a 50 ohm antenna. I thought that was really bad? I thought the whole point was matching a 50 ohm output to a 50 ohm load. How does this not wreak havoc with such a difference? What is the "buffer" that makes it possible to run with such a mismatch?
