Mobile Ram 1500 antenna

Should have got a new one but dang the price. Any cb shop you would recommend. Heard Q5 communication is good.

I did want to say thank you all for the help

Stryker is great. Same antenna. Rig analyzer say it’s good. Coax not pinched. From roof through grommet under the truck. No doors to go through. Got to be the radio. I’ll get it checked out. Stryker radio works great just wanted more power. That’s what I get.

As Sergeant Preston said to his faithful dog / partner; "well King, this case is closed"!

I agree. RADIO is the problem

Are you using the built in swr meter in the N4? With that amp built into the radio that might be way off.. If the analyzer says it's good and you can check it with an external swr meter in line and its good..you might be ok. Just a thought...

Yes radio swr. My swr meter took a fall and doesn’t work. I tried it tonight. Kept it reel short report came back good. I just don’t like the thought of running a radio with a built-in amp in a high SWR. That’s the last thing I need is to blow this thing up. It freaks out. Goes into the red. Watched videos and other 2970N4 don’t. It’s a radio issue I’m sure. Double checked everything again. The striker perfect I couldn’t ask for anything better
