Thanks for posting this. I just set my CB up last night and could not get the swr to anything reasonable. The best I could do is about 2.5 across the board. Now I wonder if all the extra metal I have on the racks (ski racks and extra cross bars) could be causing part of this. I used a 3' firefly and most of the same hardware as BigBill did in the original post, so I thought that I would be OK. Guess not.
Well this is new territory for me, so if there are suggestions, I'd like to hear them.
Check your ground first, then try a 4 footer or higher. That'd be my guess based on my experience with the metal junk up top.
