Hey I'm new to using CBs I have a classic Cobra 29 I had it peaked and tuned supposed to be pushing about 60 watts also supposed to have everything set as far as my SWRs however I am still only getting out about as far as I did with the stock radio at 15 watts I was told I needed to run in s/RF mode when I do and I key up I transmit at about 1.5 but sometimes while receiving the meter goes up past two and three while people are talking is that normal?
