CB antenna tuning

[Xgunfighter]

I have a 4' firestick. I can get 1:1. 4 ratio by tuning on channel 21, butthen it is 1:21 or higher on chan. 1 an 40. Is that OK.



Any help appreciated. .



Thanks in advance.



Antenna is in fender mount, Old cobra classic ltd, tuned and peaked several years ago.

yea man... . you've done well!!!. . just check swr on channels 1-19-and 40... . if you're under 1. 5 on all three you're good to go!!!

often times with shorter antennas you have to comprimise(?)

due to less bandwidth,but as i stated before your fine... . have fun... tom... ke3Rx
