[QUOTE="Heavyiron, post: 1480534, member: 95875"] Set your swr on channel 20 and you can work the whole band with no problems. Lot of the modern radios will not even key-up if the swr is much beyond a 2. Try to get a 1.1 match on your antenna. I go out sometimes to work portable with all my antennas lying in the bed of my truck. We (hams) have 15 different bands to use and maybe one antenna port to use that particular time so we set all the antennas before portable operations. And use them as we go to that band. And use them on at a time. [/QUOTE]
