Hi Dan - I should have my antenna analyzer with me. It does SWR and more. If hardware is needed, maybe there is a truck stop not too far away. Do you have some kind of antenna mount and antenna for your Liberty? Towstrap
I think I have everything I need other than the analyzer (3 foot firestick fl, adjustable door-jamb mount for installation on the rear hatch over the tail-light, 18 foot cable, and a cobra 75 handheld radio). My plan is to mount the, er, mount and put a 12v cigarette plug on the radio junction box temporarily, get everything working just so I have a radio for the trip, then worry about home-running the power and cabling through the body after the trip.
I'm assuming that running the 12v power source won't have TOO much interference (else I may bring my soldering iron and electrical tools with me and work on the power in the campground). I just don't want to be hasty about it an end up with a sloppy install. Having it functional and safe for the weekend is what I'm shooting for. Tuning the antenna would be a plus
Dan
