I am trying to set up a stealth base antenna. I attached a 102 whip to a metal pole...figured the metal pole would act like the counterpoise.
Got everything hooked up, Grant XL, rg8, and ended up with a 1.7:1 on 20. All indications point that the antenna is too long, and I've already cut 3 inches off it. Its not getting any better by cutting it off...its already short without the spring.
Should I worry about it?
