and the ability to hear weak stations.
The higher the number the better.

May sound simple to others but im not sure the info its asking rabbi..
freq for min vswr? My lowest swr i think is 1.15 i think its 27.185
min vswr?? no idea(i put in 1.15)
vswr??no idea(a # of 2.618 is already there)
bandwith @ vswr(khz i assume is 27
I hit calculate 1/2 power bandwith (khz) 25.4
Q 1069.1
I know im doin somethin wrong.. -
Write down the lowest frequency your SWR increases to 2.0 write down the highest frequency your SWR increases to 2.0 and that tells you the bandwidth and whatever that number is when you subtract the smaller number from the large number that's your bandwidth and plug that number into the formula
-
There is a formula..
Q = ƒc ÷ (ƒ2 – ƒ1)
Q equals resonant frequency divided by bandwidth.
Fc equals the freq that x equals 0
F2 equals the highest frequency at 2.0 SWR
F1 equals the lowest frequency at 2.0 SWR
Subtract the smaller number from the larger number to figure out your bandwidthLast edited: Oct 6, 2016

Ill have to chk it out when i stop somewhere for my 10 hr..
