IMAX 2000 vs. MaCo V 5/8 CB Antennas
The proof is on the meter. An IMAX 2000 will tune all over the band and give you a great SWR; but so will a dummy load. The SWR might be right, but the x factor is always high. Check out the numbers the MaCO puts out. It may not tune all over the band, but it is very resonant where you tune it.
