Bringing this up to the top because I used this thread to do my CB install.
So I set up my CB today and tuned it, got it to a SWR of 1.9 on all channels ( have some more tweaking to do ). Either way, I wanted to hook up my Matchmaker, which I know needs to be tuned as well, but when I hooked it up, my SWR meter was pegged in the red zone, indicating a short in the system. I unhooked it and tested the antenna + cb alone again, and it still read 1.9 on all channels.
I'm thinking that the AR-1A must be faulty because I only read a short in the system when it's hooked up. Does that sound right? Should I go order a new AR-1A?
