Tuning 470MHz whip

Hi Everyone,

I'm new to the group and I have a question.
I'm going to fit a UHF CB radio to my motorhome with a tuneable antenna for 430 - 470MHz.
The tuning is done by shifting the tuning disc up or down - rather than cutting the whip length.
Have used it some 20 years ago, but don't know if the disc is in the right position. Has someone
got an SWR meter which is suitable for this job, as I have only got one for HF frequencies. I would
like to use it once and am willing to pay for it.

Thanks
