Ok I'm out. Spent all afternoon and evening trying to fix the SWR on my CB and jacked up my back in the process while crawling around re-wiring the ground for the antenna stud.
Of course with all that work and a great ground now, I STILL have a ridiculous SWR reading which makes no sense. Haven't tuned it since I moved it from the stock spare tire mount to my new JCR tire carrier which actually puts it an extra foot above the roofline. I should be having great SWR with 3 out of 4 feet now above the top. Used to get a 1.3/1.4 reading on ch. 1 & 40 and now it's nowhere near that. Only thing that changed was the mount and a higher up mounting location.
