Naaaahhh, cant be. If initial sig hits antenna, and part of energy is
reflected back to amp, then all of that is reflected back to ant, then we are
already getting these two sigs out of phase. then if part of that is reflected
back to amp, then reflected back, we are even more out of phase. Depending on
the transmission line length and its velocity coefficient, pwr nulling by
phaseout would seemingly take place. Even if this is wrong, I just dont like
it, i tell ya!
