Measure Return Loss (CAT Mode)

Starting with A.11.25 firmware, for the B
models, the FieldFox output power defaults to -15 dBm.
Return loss can be thought of as the absolute value of
the reflected power as compared to the incident power.
When measuring an OPEN or SHORT, all incident power
is reflected and 0 dB return loss is displayed.
When measuring a LOAD, very little power is reflected
and values of greater than 40 dB are displayed.
