| align="left" | The ideal range! an SWR under 1.5 is really great. Getting under 1.5 (closer of 1) is possible but difficult, you may consider additionnal tuning, other equipment and different mounting location. However dropping under 1.5 (to 1.0) would not increase the performance in significant manner.

| align="left" | SWR in this range should still provide adequate performance. Occasionally, due to installations or vehicle variables, it's impossible to get SWR lower than than this. You should try to get it lower, but performance should still be acceptable in this range. If you've tuned the antenna, SWR in this range is likely an issue of a less-than-ideal mounting location for your vehicle and/or an antenna that isn't ideal for the mounting location. To troubleshoot, see this article on problematic CB antenna mounting locations. Going to from 2.0 down to 1.5 will really offer noticeable performance improvement.

| align="left" | This range will provide an adequate/acceptable performance. Due to installations, it's sometime impossible to get an SWR under that range. This SWR range often means that your tuned antenna is not mounted in a less-than-ideal location. To troubleshoot, search for paper dealing about "problematic CB antenna mounting locations". Going to from 2.0 down to 1.5 will really offer noticeable performance improvement.

| align="left" | While not good, this likely won't damage your radio with casual use. However, you should definitely try to improve it if you can. SWR in this range is usually caused by a poor antenna mounting location and/or a poor choice of equipment for your specific vehicle. To troubleshoot, you'll likely need to move the mounting location and/or use a more suitable antenna. It's by no means a good tuning job, but will function if you've exhausted all other troubleshooting possibilities.
