Kartek, Good description of tuning the antennas for SWR. I might add that sometimes the stainless steel antenna whip is too long as it was in my case. I had to trim about 1/2 inch off then I could find the sweet spot. To trim I just scored the base end of the s/s whip with a file 1/2" up from the end and snapped the piece off with a pair of pliers.
The Uniden 520 pro is a nice little radio too. I've owned 2 of them of which one of them I fried when my 12VDC power supply lost its regulator and put about 22 volts on it.
