    ?? Tuning the new Maco V58 ??

    Check at the antenna with a jumper to see what it is at the antenna. It should be darn near flat across the 40 channels. Its not bad for low power operation. But a 1.7:1 will cause stress on any amp or coax connections.

    Maximum Swing Power?

    A lot of swang watts are just harmonics. But lets assume it's not, are you really louder. Yes, no, maybe. Just buy an amp for the desired ouput and be done with it.
