[Elecraft] a bit of geek humor

So I was watching this show, and our hero, a geek, has shown up just in time to respond to a lightning strike at a transmitter.

Hooking up a VNA, he turns to the (business) operators and says
"Good news. You are still transmitting."
"Bad news. Your return loss is high...way too high."

Scoffing lightly at the deer-in-the-headlights looks...he turns to the VNA, and punches a few buttons, saying
"If I know what I am doing, we should be good!"

And, voila, they are back at full signal. I need one of those VNAs. ;-) For my high return losses.
