Install a VSWR meter at the transceiver and apply 10 or 25 watts of power. Adjust the VSWR meter and output frequency for lowest VSWR reading, indicating resonance. If resonant frequency is higher than desired, loosen the set screw and extend the top whip until the desired resonant frequency is found. If resonant frequency is too low, loosen the set screw and adjust the whip further into the lower section. For best results, adjustments should be made in small increments.
