borrow or buy an SWR meter,follow the instructions for use.

look under the cap on the firestick to see if it has the adjustable bolt in the end for tuning.

some guys talk about the quality and length of the co-ax cable being important as well.

where is it mounted? it won't get good reception if its mounted low on the truck.
