Amp maybe still good. The radio that it was on is probably crap

I have one and I love it! After I put a fan on top of it, have it turn on with the AMP while using LMR240 coaxial with an sirio antenna with SWRs set at below 1.5 while using common mode choke a foot from the antenna I am able to comfortably talk skip all day long. The coaxial ground is...

Thank you! Always happy to get as much help as possible.

I would like to try my hand in 6m and 10m someday. I am still studying for my General's license but it's a slow process.

Currently with my CB setup in my mobile i am using lmr 240 coaxial with an sirio 5000 antenna.

After reading this post makes me want to go out and purchase a SSB rig

The RF ground is established passively through magnetic coupling rather than an electrical connection. Electrically grounding an antenna provides a solid, low-resistance connection to the earth, which can help reduce noise, improve signal reception, and enhance the antenna's efficiency for both...

I wrapped tinned copper braid around the the ground of the coax and bolted to the lift bolt on my tailgate. Top picture is my SWR reading .There are no holes put into my roof and there are also no paint scratched off on my roof for ground.

I am also using a mag mount and I bonded the coaxial ground to the car body for the ground plane. The RF ground is a must. Then I put a common mode choke about a 8 inches from my antenna. My coaxial is a lmr 240. The quality of antenna and coaxial has a lot of to do with your performance and...
