I've just fitted a cb in my yj,  with the same ariel as chris.
 
I was told they were pre-swr'd in the factory, but as no-one seems to be able to hear me i'm guessing that it needs tuning? Maybe mounting it to the tyre stop is causing the problem? :wink:

Right,....

Just been out an, checked I've got a real good ground on the stinger.

Now gettin' an SWR readin' of 1 on ch.1 and about 1.7 on ch.40 and the first thing I heard when I switched the rig on was German!!!!!! so I reckon it's workin' now! :lol:

So Trent, check the ground on your mount mate, it's probably the cause of your problem too. :wink:

Are you sure it wasn't Welsh?

You never need to chop a stinger, the whips the correct length for the coil. 1.7 is pretty good.
