Bob,
Not being familiar with the measuring device used/program, and not knowing what frequency you want the 'best' results at, you want to take this as an honest question (not trying to 'catch' you at anything sort of deal).
It appears that the 'best' results are around 27.6 Mhz. Slightly higher than the 'US-CB' band. If that's where you want it, I really don't see where anything is 'wrong'. To be honest, I don't see much being 'wrong' with the bottom end of the test range. SWR might be a bit 'off' from the 'ideal', but considering human error, it's still not bad.
What am I missing?

PS - Nice program! The information is presented a bit different than what I'm used to seeing, but nothing unusual about that. What do you use to do the measuring? I'm afraid to ask what the cost is...
