I just received a Comet GP-24 and have no idea how to tune the (3) 2 inch long radials. The omni antenna I am currently using does not have any radials. Please help, thank you.

I doubt there is much, if anything, to tune. The mfr pdf seems to be here
I can't find any "Installation Instructions". Guessing, the radials should be fixed at some pre marked location, but this is really a guess.
The pdf has a contact at the bottom email: snipped-for-privacy@cometantenna.com
under "contact us" has this info: NCG Companies Inc.

They made it so they should know how to install it - I'm sure someone there can assist you.
Good luck

Don't know if this is the answer you're looking for, but....
The non-radial antenna may have an internal sleeve inside that you can't see (in a fiberglass radome?),

Generally, you don't have to "tune" ground plane radials.
