He is great and does very good work and repairs.
He also sales new equipment and antennas cheap or replaces/repairs mobile antennas
 
Could you tell me where Brian is located? In need of a tune up for my radio.

Another very good radio tech that is closer would be Joshua Smith @ Gump Technologies in Geraldine, AL.

Yes there are radio techs around here but they will never touch my gear, so I ship it to the good ones.

If you dont have FB, I can dig up their numbers for you.

I understand. Am I really going to notice any appreciable improvement by tuning a new uniden 520?

I'm not familiar with Uniden radios but the answer is yes. Your modulation will jump way up and a 5 watt radio will sound like 50-100 watts.
Everything I've had tuned properly is crystal clear modulation and people think i'm running a huge linear amp, but it's just tuned right vs some tech turning everything wide open

Excellent. Well, the uniden isn't anything fancy but highly recommended for jeeps. Small and durable. i appreciate the help. I'll give the gentleman in AL. a call.

Best Regards

You will be very happy with Joshua aka Gump in Alabama.
Give him a shout, tell him what you have and what you want it to do.
he will give you sever options and make sure you are running the proper coax and antenna.

You definitely need coax and antenna tuned properly. 1.3 SWR or lower is ideal. I tinker until it's flat 1.0 SWR if I can
 
I've got a firestick II 4' with their coax (rg58) but ordered a 102" whip as well. Hopefully that coax will work. I know there is better out there. Rumor is the 102" should be gtg out of the box with. 6" spring and 18' coax.
