Radio fully installed ,
SWR reading is slightly over 3 for all channels , and when i scab it just scans through all 40 channels and doesn’t stop or pick up anything
I have grounding strap (see pics) running from between ditch mount and coax ring cable to where i think is best ground option near by (under the fender aluminum but over the chassis steel..)
Is there a better grounding spot?
Is there a better option for running a longer strap to a designated spot?
Any help appreciated !
As of now this radio is useless since i don’t get any channels, I’m hoping it’s just grounding issue
I read the other threads and haven’t found anything that answers this SWR issue or could it be a different issue ?
It’s a uniden off-road CB
