I think I've read almost every possible thread on SWR tuning issues in the last couple of day and now I turn to you for problems I can't seem to solve.
I've installed a cobra 75 wx st with a 3' fire stick antennae. When tuning the antennae I get SWR readings that are off the charts. I've checked and double checked grounding issues with the antennae mount, and checked continuity in the coax and connectors to make sure I didn't have a bad cable. I did find that I had the nylon washer on the wrong side. It's now on the bottom side of the antennae isolating it from the mount.
Any ideas???
