    Help understanding my antenna analyzer

    I just talked 40 miles across a valley to another mobile. He was weak but said I was loud and clean. Finally got this radio like it should be.

    So here is where I tuned it. These are dual 5 foot power sticks Quad Wire set up. Guys in the know I’m sure have a better name for them. I guess legendary top load antennas. I believe these are good numbers. Just a little encouragement for myself and others that taking the task upon yourself can...

    Thanks guys. I understand tuning a antenna up or down the band. I’m really after understanding more than swr tuning. I would like to understand the graph part of this analyzer. R and x what does negative x mean

    So I figured these antennas out..... mirrors weren’t grounded to the doors. So now I got something that I can work with. So Swr is 1.08 potential. Ohms is 50 potential and resonance is 26.401 At the moment. What I’m asking is if everything is wanting to work. What should I be tuning for...

    So low resistance isn’t a big deal if swr is under 2

    Tall man. I hear you on the tune up but on the analyzer I should see impedance somewhere around 50 right. I’m around 30

    I did what you say and I have the swr as good as I could get. Out of adjustment on antenna. But the impedance is low. My question is what causes low impedance. Is it a ground problem?

    I bought a rig master aa-35 zoom. I have a decent swr 1.6 but resistance is 30 ohms. I don’t know what that reading means. Like what is the issue. I had a cb shop put new coax in and supposedly ground the doors. I don’t see where they did that though. This is on a truck with dual antennas. I...
