Vehicle Storage

This morning I lost control of my jeep while driving and wound up rolling it on its side. I am not hurt but my jeep is totaled.

Re: CB tuning help

Re: CB tuning help

I forgot to mention that I was testing the SWR in an open area with no trees or power lines nearby.

CB tuning help

I just installed a new CB radio and have been trying to tune it using a SWR meter I got off Amazon. My SWR reading on channel 1 and 40 are both around 2.5. I sanded all the paint off underneath my mount to ensure my antenna is grounded properly. I have an 18' coax and I have looped the small amount ...
