    Ground Plane Issues with 1.0 SWR? PICS.

    I'm running an Anytone AT-666 with a Bulletproof Diesel NMO mount and a Laird CB27S 1/4 wave antenna on my 2020 F350. Aluminum body and a panorama roof. SWR is 1.0 on 19 with little increase on either side as 1 and 40 are both 1.2. I understand that CB usage on the roads is not what it once...

    Yaesu FTM-400XDR Install - 2019 F150

    2015 Ford F-150 Scanner Install

    My setup using the Home Patrol 2 and the Larsen NMO800 antenna (I painted it Black). That antenna, though designed for 800 MHz, works quite well on Vhf Hi as well.
