Operation Calibrate For SWR (Standing Wave Ratio) Calibrate for SWR (Standing Wave Ratio) SWR calibration is done to properly adjust the length of the antenna and to monitor the quality of the coaxial cable and all RF connections. This calibration is critical in order to achieve optimum performance. Note Antenna Indicator LED will illuminate when TX if SWR is high. 1 Select channel 20. 3 Push and hold mic button. Operation Note Calibration must be made in an open area (never in a garage). Vehicle doors must be closed. No one should be standing near the antenna.
