    Is there anywhere in the springs that does CB radio tuning? Long story short, I have a new antenna and I need the SWR dialed in.

    There isn't squat down here for that stuff. I had to go to Denver for mine and the guy wasn't very good.

    Predator MIGHT do stuff like that, but they'll probably charge you like $200 to do it. They overcharge on everything.

    Just find a truck stop and buy an swr meter. They are cheap, and you might use it more than you think. You can tune @Ice Horse cb while you are at it :D

    Yea that was my next option lol. James at r&r offroad has one but I've used his the last 2 times and I feel bad borrowing it constantly. I guess I need one

    I've had one for years and since I run a wire whip with an adjustable tip, that occasionally snaps off with spirited driving through the trees, I've had several occasions to use it.

    Not as exciting as ordering suspension parts, but still useful. :boink:
    And occasionally it may get you a free beer...
