according to your earlier post DoubleJ, I might need a 4' antenna for my problem then?

Your SWR's came down low enough... I think your setup might be OK (sounds like it was was anyway, have yet to hear your results from testing today though).

Pretty sure I have a good solid ground, perhaps not.. I put a meter on the coax connector at the swr meter end and had zero ohms to ground and no short to the center conductor. Is that good enough?
The reason that I went with a 3' is I wanted to be able to put my rig in the garage. I guess I'll have to make it detachable..?

I'd definitely try yours with a larger antenna and the quick-disconnect setup. That should take care of your problems if you've got a good ground and no shorts to the center. Your problem sounds exactly like mine, which was only solved with the longer antenna...
