Arrrg! Your making my stomach hurt reading this misinformation...

Hi Kevin,

If you have to cut bits off the coax to get the SWR down, your aerial

isn't
resonant on the frequency being used. The coax is acting like part of the
aerial.
Get the aerial resonant and it doesn't matter what length of coax you use

as
the SWR will not change.
