NB, based on your 1/2 wave tuned jumper idea above...what would you expect your matching results might be if you used a tuned 1/4 wave or a 9' foot jumper to tune your antenna instead of the tuned 1/2 wave you suggest? I'm not expecting you to give me specific results...just a general idea of what happens here...either way you do it.

222, your readings are very good. I may have asked this before. Did you tune your antenna with your analyzer directly at the feed point, did you use a short coax jumper, or did you use a 1/2 wave tune jumper to tune your NV4K like NB suggested above?

What was the length of the coax you used to tune?

Did you take an analyzer reading at the radio-end after the antenna was tuned, raised, and using a different length of coax for you working feed line?

What does this test and results suggest to you?
