John,
The Trail Friendly is out of the box at the very bottom of the bands.
If you operate mostly SSB it will need to be shortened quite a bit.
The instructions are in the manual available online here:

Instead of “cutting” the wire I recommend pulling it through the insulator and wrapping it tightly back around itself. That way you can retune for a different location or portion of the band later if you need to.
