Just got back from testing SWR - Channel 1 was 1.4 and Channel 40 was a hair under 2. Gonna try some ground straps and then re-test. May modify the antenna if necessary but haven't totally shut down the idea of moving mounts yet again....... -
With all due respect,dont care how its designed..Its a bit to sharp...Straighten it out and try again..Coax might be fubared..Meteorgray Thanks this. -

Jj...We both know that you know more than me in this subject BUT till i find something that agrees with you,im gonna disagree with that statement...
Ill agree "IF" you retune for each freq change but not say across all 40 as an example...jessejamesdallas Thanks this. -
an antenna can have resonance at one given frequency, not a range of them.
Swr is not a reflection of a resonant antenna.Night Stalker10 Thanks this. -

I agree with what Ridgeline is saying. Craig, if you have some time on your hands, someday you could do an experiment for us. You probably have the most matched antenna system of anyone. You also have a very nice antenna analyzer that you could actually check the reactance on every channel of the CB band. Then you could let us know what you find out. I think it would be interesting to see your results since we are only talking 20 kHz frequency spacing. -
Fair enough..Ill give it a shot and see when i get some sown time..
