ah ****, stu that sucks how did it happen?
Update on the CB front...
Stripped metal back to bare on mount - No luck
Earth it to the body - no luck
Earth it to the battery neg - no luck
New cable (again 10m) - no luck
New Aerial (long) - no luck
it just reads well over 3 on the SWF on channels 1 and 40, every time.
Am completely at my wits end with it. Only other thing i can think of, is either i have a dodge SWF meter, of there is a nick in the actual transmitter power cable (although unlikely as the tranmitter is powering up and down fine...)
hmmm

With all the welding Matts done on that side it should have been able to withstand impact from a truck.
you silly sod, that looks expensive or we could pull it out with the winch and fill it.

all it can be is a duff connection or a short, get a meter on the cable and the mount and check them out, it would not be the trancevers power cable, its the coax or the mount,
First of all check with the meter if the coax has no shorts across the Screen and the central conductor
Then see if the main condutor has continuity
Then see if the screen has continuity.
The check the base the part were you screw the aerial in should not be connected to the out side of the plug, but the centre pin should connect there.
screw the aerial into the base and check that you have continuaty with the pin in the plug that you screw into the CB.

Oh dear Stu, what was you adding character to the old girl.
I'm now 2" taller, thanks for that Stu. Just need to get some longer shocks now.
Just when you think your getting to the end your list something else comes along.

Family life what is one of them.
