Hello newbie to site. I have a cobra 29 ltd classic cb on a 21 Peter built 389 with a co-phase setup. I’m upgrading the stock antennas to Wilson 2000’s. I will be picking up astatic PDC1 meter to tune my radio. My cb is encased to overhead and will be a more work to take down and put meter between cb and y cable. Can I disconnect right side antenna and just let cable hang and put the meter on the left side between y cable and antenna and tune 1 antenna and then repeat on opposite side tuning antennas 1 at a time or will it not work since cable is open? Or is it just stupid to do that way. I’m new to this but very easily taught but can’t find answer to my exact question so trusting u guys. Any input greatly appreciated thanks
