I didn't hear your question. Something about coax. Could you repeat your question, please? Yes. Sure, I can repeat it. So I have a truck with my 50 watt brand new A-town. And it's a magnum out on the roof. And I was lazy. And I put the SD58 just through the passenger door and tried to keep it up to keep it from being dented. But I think the cable ended up getting dented, which it looks like the insulation's a little bit damaged. And I just got this radio and I was doing some testing earlier before the net. And my SWR on either just around the field calling frequency is really, really, really good. And also on 220 because it's a tri-band. But at 446, if the 70 centimeter calling, it's nesting up, it shoots up to five. And I was curious if the dent in the cable might be a factor or if I have some of the comebacks coiled up in the cabin here. Checked out my connection. Tried swapping around my jumper cables with my box. I'm just curious if you had any other ideas or if you think that that cable's being dented might be the culprit in case I've been DNI.
