SWR INFORMATION (continued)
Tighten mast set screw and again read SWR. Repeat until lowest
SWR is obtained.
If the whip is fully lowered into mast and the SWR is still high,
remove the whip from mast. Using a hacksaw, grinder, or bolt
cutters, cut 1/4 from the bottom part of the whip. Re-insert the whip
into the mast and test again for SWR. Repeat the above procedure
until the SWR is below 1.5 of all channels.
If the lowest SWR reading occurs on channel 40, the antenna whip
is to short and must be raised. Loosen the mast set screws and
raise the whip 1/4, re-tighten set screws and test SWR again.
Repeat the above procedure until the SWR is below 1.5 of all
channels.
