I had that problem as well, ended up being that I needed a 66" stinger instead of the 62" that I got with it.

Had the same exact issue, needed a 66" stinger also, swr's are flat ever since.

Where can one get a 66 " whip, I have seen them before but can't remember where ?

The 66" comes with the Wilson 5000....

Actually when the dealers buy the Wilsons they come
in a small box for both the 1000 @ 5000. The dealer buys
the whips in a tube with X number of stingers and he can
mix and match.

If it is a CB or Ham shop, then he should know by now to
get some Xtra 66" whips (stingers) whatever

HERE 468 ÷ F = ½W

½W ÷ 2 x 12 - C = Whip Length
WHERE: F = Frequency desired ; W = Wavelength ; C = Coil Factor
(Coil Factor : for W-1000 use : C=41.65 ; for Trucker 5" use: C=52.21 ; for Trucker 10" use C=53.84
468/27.205= 17.20272
17.20272/2X12-41.65= 61.56632 IN SO WE NEED 62"
Antenna mast allows an additional 1-¼" adjustment of antenna. This allows for correcting and adding length if whip is cut to short.


61.5 + 1.250 = 62.750 TOTAL LENGHT

CH FREQ. WILSON 1000/5000
1 26.965 = 62 ¾"
5 27.015 = 62 ¾"
10 27.075= 62 ¼"
15 27.135= 62 "
19 27.185 = 61 ¾"
25 27.245 = 61 ½"
30 27.305 = 61 ¼ "
35 27.355 = 61 "
40 27.405 = 60 ¾"
