  • Answer:

    Your radio only has your power and signal strength meter. If it had an SWR meter there would be a switch that would have at least three positions: S/RF, SWR, and CAL. SWR meters start out pretty cheap as low as $14: http://www.sparkyscbshack.com/powermeters.html You'll also need a 3ft coax jumper. Here's a link that'll help in checking and tuning your SWR: http://www.firestik.com/Meas-SWR.htm
