This is where you need to be making your adjustments, so that when the stinger is somewhere in the middle of the top piece of the antenna, you want to get your swr reading to be as low as possible on channel 1 and 40. You may not be able to get both channels tuned the same...but should be able to get close... Then you can just move the stinger "up and down" by using the set-screw, to fine tune.
By the way...Once you get channel 1 and 40 set, channel 20 should be either the same, or lower...not higher!
Exactly...
What i was saying about bottoming it all the way out was I had been cuttin small amounts off and it wasnt changing hardly any at all. so instead of keeping this up 100x I put it all the way in to see if it was still to low and it still to long so I new I could cut off all the stinger below the half way of the top shaft. maby not the best method but made good sence to me when I did it and well now my SWR's are goooooooood
Sounds like your on the right track then! Hell...Mine has been ajusted perfectly now for years, and I still find myself out in the front yard sometimes on the weekend, trying to tune it in a little better!:D
Just incase I hit a bug with it, and by some chance it may have got'en off some!
Do not argue with an idiot. He will drag you down to his level and beat you with experience.
didnt touch it today.had too much work to do.wich is a good thing when i own the bussiness :D .but if i raise the whip the SWR reading goes higher.the more i cut the lower it goes.
