ANTENNA (BRAIN RACKING) ISSUES AND THEN SOME ? WHAT'S BEST ?

Damn Rookie! I read your post's twice, and I'm so confused at what your getting at, that my eyes started crossing! :wow

Sounds like you have about 400' too much coax in your car, or truck now :p ...best I can figure :?

Rookie, all you have to do...Is get a antenna anilizer (MFJ) hook it up at the end of the coax, that run's to the antenna. And set the antenna's SWR. Keep coax run's as SHORT as possible. This includes all "jumpers". Regardless of what your thinking, coax just needs to get "point A" to "point B" in the short'est distance possible.

Or...you can rack your brain with all the 3' jumper therorys, and 18' run's, run's of 6', and what ever else some have said in the past. Longer run's of coax just fool's meter's into thinking the swr is set right. :!:
