i understand what you mean by more tuning, however i did that with the 5000 and i got the swr to 1.1.1 and it would still jump. i tuned it enough to see the swr start to rise on channel 1. if i would have kept trimming the whip i would have overshot channel 40. now i have done the best i can as far as tuning goes with the 1000 as the swr(radio only) is 1.4.1 on 26.805 and 1.4.1 on 27.505 with 1.1.1 being somewhere around 26.965 to 27. 205 i also forgot to mention, not that it would help i had done extensive bonding work on the vehicle with 5/8" ground braid years ago to help with radation patterns.
