Hello, My friend uses a Connex 4300 hp in his rig and is having problems getting the swr's below 1.9-1.8 on 1 through 40. Strange thing is, when he installs one of his two other radios, the swr's come down to 1.2-1.3. He has replaced all the coax, made sure the antenna is well grounded and tried different antennas on different places on the truck as well. Im at a loss here and dont know what to tell him to try next. Does anybody else have some ideas we could try? Thanks very much for your help. |

are you using an external wattmeter, or built into the radio? try a dummy load & see where swr is then. is meter recalibrated for radio with higher power....if the others are standard/lower power? |
