[QUOTE="ozziedog, post: 646155, member: 13810"] I can do that for you bud no problems if you can borrow a VSWR meter from anywhere. You still need to to check it out even if the antenna is untuneable or preset as some of the firesticks were back in the day. I dont have anything like that any more. I did notice that a lot of the sets in a kit had a preset antenna that was already tuned. So just don’t key the mike without the ariel plugged in. Maybe that’s not an issue nowadays with more modern sets, a fail safe shouldn’t be a serious issue if they wanted too during manufacturing. Ozziedog,,,,,,,,,,Anyone got a meter ? :) [/QUOTE]
