Re: How come its OK to mix impedances in a radio system??
Why is it that the output (or internal) impedance of a practical RF
power amplifier is seldom, if ever, anywhere near to 50 ohms or
whatever it is supposed to be?
This question should be answered before proceding with the discussion.
Conjugate matches don't come into it.
