Just googled it and have gone and had a play. So my swr reading stands at slightly over 3. I trimmed 1/4" off and no difference trimmed a further 1/2" off and if anything it's gone slightly higher. It's on a mag mount so cannae do anything about grounding it further, anyone got some suggestions?

Normal to check highest and lowest channel.........where have you got the aerial mounted?
20 should be mid point, your electrically tuning Ariel and if it reflects too much rf back it will blow power transistor in set.
the meter should have two settings, briefly key up on ref and set full scale mark unless indicated otherwise in instructions.
flick switch other way and it should be under 1.5 on all channels

Should be ok then....Are you parked next to buildings when testing the swr? Is there adjustment up in the aerial mount? Mine you can adjust longer by not pushing fully into the mount

Couldnt get anything on the roof below 3 then i managed to get it to 1.3 on the bumper which is brilliant apart from the fact that i cant open my rear door while the mag mount is there 
then it took me nearly a week to figure out that the cb was programmed to spanish channels instead of uk ones lol
