I'm not sure how to start a new thread here, but since there are a good number of followers here, I'll try this.
Starting with a new inverted V for 40 M, I cut each side to about a foot and a half longer. So now that I can see where my SWR of 1.43:1 plots out as peaking/bottoming out at 6.800 MHz, how do I determine how much I should cut away on each side? Should I just cut 6" on each side and recalculate, judging how much farther I have to cut?
Thanks.
Doug.

NONE of the videos showed calibration on the end of the feed. They all did it right at the side of the vna! I finally happened on a video that did it at the end of the coax n NOW its acting like it should ? FINALLY getting a swr i can figure out after chasing how many different ghosts ?
