    Stryker mag mount question

    I just bought this antenna and mounted it. ran wire and secured the wire. I now try to set swr and it either barley moves the needle or jumps to 3, sometimes i get a hum. ive tried two different meters one brand new to make sure it wasnt meter. new 1ft jumper from radio to meter. any ideas?

    I messed with it some more, I have changed 3 antennas, 2 radios, 2 new jump coax,2 different meters. I finally got a decent reading of 1.4 then turned cb off. turned back on and couldnt get needle to move again. i am lost. I have changed everything you can change and tried different combinations so i dont get it why it works once and then quits.

    could be the coax connector on the radio . do you have a different radio to try on it or can you borrow one or try your radio on another antenna that is tuned properly ?
