Hi all, i m using a springer antenna with my workshop cb, i usually just do a bit of earwigging, but asked for a rig check, and was told i was very quiet and did nt have a very strong signal. the guy i was talking to was only about a mile away (by road) he was also quiet with a weak signal.

My swr is very good (hardly moves the needle), is the problem with my cb set up or with his, or both? and what can i do to make things better with the set up i have? any help will be much appreciated.

Many thanks.

WAITE till you get a few more contacts as it will drive you daft if you alter the set up each time you talk to a new contact
min car set use to be on the bench at least once a week till i saw the light and said if you can hear me then we can talk
not been out of car for 5 years now and still get different reports from different breakers treat them like water off a ducks back
