Read the material that M0GVZ linked to and you will have a much better understanding of how and why things work the way they do.  Your antenna is one of the most vital parts of your radio station.  This is where majority of people slack off and end up having a mediocre setup and wonder why thier $300 radio isn't "gettin out" or hearing anything.  Takes some work to get it right and if you spend the time doing it the right way, it will reward you with much better rx/tx 99.9% of the time. There is always Murhy's Law, but even that can be overcome with some perseverance.  JMHO.  Get that antenna setup corrected and you'll be much happier!!
