I just picked up 2 2' firestik 2 antennas with their no tools required tuning tips. Problem is, I don't know how to tune them.

Can someone help....?


Thanks In advance

You need a SWR meter. I have 1 36" firestik and got it dialed in good with a buddies meter $$$ for this one. Go to a truck stop and pickup a swr meter for $20-30.

check out http://www.firestik.com/ and read read read.

I have dual (cophase) 4' Firestik antennas with tuneable tips. They are great antennas, be sure to have a good ground plane also. Check out Firestik's website (like 2500Ram stated) they have loads of good info on there. Wouldnt use your radio too much before tuning them in with a meter! Good luck!
