    SWR and mobile ground planes

    I added a ground plane kit to my Wilson 5000 mag mount. Should I simply cut off approximately what the ground plane added to the length? Then use this as a baseline to re-tune? I can also deduct the measurement of the ground plane from the Wilson whip spec of 61¾". What do you all...

    Magnum S-980 & 680

    I am looking at replacing my DX959 base with an S-9 or S-980. This is instead of modding my 959 like crazy just for a bit of extra power. I am NOT interested in driving an amp. Just going barefoot. Anyone have any experience with the new 980? Searching this forum I see both good and bad...
