antennas

i am running a 4 foot firestick antenna on my truck and am trying to decide which amp to run just wondering how many watts the firestick should handle looking at a texas star 500v or a xforce tnt 350hd thanks in advance rusty

Honestly I wouldn't use either of those amps with a 4 foot firestick.

What are your current SWR readings?

a wilson 5000 would be a better choice. that firestick is not a good choice, unless used for self defense...
