You need to tune your tuner only to provide the proper impedance match

WHOA! There you go again! If I tune my transmitter to 50 ohms
RESISTIVE, non-reactive, it will ABSORB any reflected power because
it's acting like a RESISTOR, as it should, converting reflected power
into HEAT in the final amp.....(c;
