2006 CVO Ultra with the Harmon Kardon/CB built into the head unit.
How do I tune the antenna? I plan on buying an SWR meter (if you can recommend a brand I'd be happy), removing the fairing and hooking it up to the coax cable coming out of the CB radio.
Then what?
Key the hand held microphone and watch the needle swing over and then,....?
How do I know what it's telling me, and how do I know what needs to be done?
Any help with tuning the HD CB is appreciated.
Lastly, I was surfing the HD website. Why are there different CB antennas for bikes made before 2009? Can run I the CB antenna off my cousins 2016 on my 2006? I was using a shorter aftermarket CB antenna but the results were poor. Folks could hear me in the parking lot when we were picking channels, but on the road all they heard was radio break and garble. Even on a straight road with clear line of site. So in that respect I know the CB radio works, I just think it needs tuning.
Thanks
