Greetings, this is my first post here, I've been a lurker for a while.
I bought one of the J pole antennas made from copper tubing from KB9VBR J Poles and my question is, if the SWR needs adjusting, what part of the antenna do I adjust ?
The center conductor feed point, the length of the short or long end of the two rods ? I'm just not sure where to start. I have a SWR meter, have only ever adjusted CB antennas in the past.
He has the centerpoint fitted to the long 1/2 wave radiator and the connector soldered to the short 1/4 wve radiator.
Thanks for your help, John
