best place to have cb radio tuned?
I recently purshased a cb radio for my jeep and installed it the other day and spent 2 hrs today trying to tune it and couldn't get my swr reading right no matter how many times i messed with the antenna. So are there any good shops in the richmond area that could tune it?

....turn the knob?
wtf...you don't need to tune one, especially one that's brand new. most of the channels you scan to will be static, occasionally you'll get some truckers. the point is to have someone else with a cb so you can both be on the same channel talking.

I dont know of an exact shop in Richmond, but I will ask my drivers in the morning.
What is your SWR reading on Tx Ch1?
What kind of antenna you using?
