Default Whip Antenna Formula



How long should I cut the whip to accomplish this? Or is the whip too
short already!?



Considering that there is an unknown coil in the base, I guess a normal
formula for figuring the length of the antenna won't apply... I would
suggest you take an inch, or maybe inch and a half off the length of the
whip and just go with that.... of course remember, it will never be usable
on 2M again.
