359, I can see it on the radio's signal strength meter. With the little wil, silverload, and firestik, anything above a 1.3:1 swr and the radio will not dead key the full meter. It will modulate it if the swr isn't too bad, but not dead key. The higher the mismatch, the less the meter will show transmitting. Unconventional, I know, but FS measurements and receiving stations collaborate. Again, it is just an indicator.
