That CB SWR meter should be just fine. You might be surprised with the
bandwidth of that CB antenna. Of course cutting the elements by some amount
(maybe 4%; midband 27.250 v 28.400).
In my experience, I had fun working numerous stations incl Australia, New
Zealand, Japan, Alaska, Hawaii, all over
No it does not have one built in. I have one SWE meter I used with CB in the 70s and one for VHF and UHF. The only other antenna I have is a quad band I use with my quad band mobile radios. Thank you for the messing have a pleasant evening.Jerry Sent to you On Apr 10, 2024, at 6:16 PM, Jeffrey Cars
Does the radio have one built in?
No, no "special" SWR meter needed. A good SWR meter is good to have, so is an
antenna analyzer. Analyzers come in handy when making homebrew antennas!
