SWR Tells Me??
OK, I have a new 2 meter j-pole antenna installed in my 3rd floor
attic. I have 50 feet of LMR240 coax running to the basement. I
measure SWR at the following frequencies on simplex.
144.2 2.5
145.2 2.4
146.2 2.3
147.2 1.9
147.9 1.7
Can I conclude that the antenna is electrically short for the 2 meter
band?
Thanks for any insight, jimbo
