At the moment it the antenna is hanging in a tree....  i lowered the antenna to 4 or 5 feet and it was at 1.6 swr 15x.... @ 49.5mhz or so that was as good as it got...  then the wind rotated the antenna and it dropped to 1.1:1 and 9x.  I am thinking the antenna is reacting to the trees and/or the steel garage / being under a few dipoles
