Sunk antenna mounting post 6" into ground, Added a ground wire up top to the antenna bracket.. SWR went up to 1.4 on Channel 1 and 1.2 on channel 20 and 1.0 on 40.. not sure if that was the post going in ground or the ground wire hanging in breeze. :/

Ground wire wasn't grounded to anything as I don't have ground rod..

Took that back off for now. Till I get rod..
