I know how to tune it, It just was at 2.5+ Even after tuning it.


After trial & error & playing around with a multi-meter.. I FINALLY figured out that the coax cable that it came with, had the hot wire SOLDERED to the fucking ground. Are. You. Kidding. Me...

Anyways, New Antenna (this ones red, Fuck the white one) New cable & Now my SWR is 1.3

Yea. it would NOT go below 2.5+ Before, It was hard shorting in the cable.

Now 1.3 across the board.

Nice, here's your cookie. :)






There used to be a funny CB song, but for the life of me I can't remember the name. So you'll just have to suffer with this one, again. :D
