I put up a 160m dipole but now need to tune it. SWR at low end of band is abt 3 
and at top end abt 5. From what I have read this means I need to shorten it. My 
question is how much should I take off? A foot off each end?? Any good links to 
sites that may explain this in some detail so I can learn?
