Hi guy's and gals(didi)  ;)
I'm off playing in a disused quarry on the weekend (sunday) So I decided to get myself a swr meter for the cb cos it's never been great to be honest  :roll: Turns out that with the gutter mount i cant get the reading out of the red on rev,And with the mag mount it's only just coming out of the red. Seem's bad earth plane is to blame  :evil: What's the best way you guys have found to solve this ? I've tried on the bonnet, sunroof and gutterings with no change in readings ? Any idea's ?

GREENI:
Possibly an faulty earth on the patch leads ??/
If you've tried two antennae, that would be my next thing to look at ..........

barriesheene:
What's a patch lead ??? Is that the lead from the ant to the swr to the cb ?

POTASH:
check the conections are okay on the ariel end and the cb end

L90OOK:
run a good earth to the aerial mounting. & try again.  If that works you will need to scratch the paint off the gutter so you are getting a good earth...or run a permanent earth to it  ;)
