Hello Bob85:


Ok sorry I am not framiluar with your measuring machine or program there. So I a don't know what the measurement traces are, SWR?

I have a hard enoght time working with a Network Analyzer, at times.


Send me a web site explaning the data.


Any antenna will have some change to SWR when it heigth is changed. The SWR smile trace measurement curve, will indicate (for all antennas) Capactive Reactance Xc to the left of the smile, or below in frequency the SWR lowest point, and Inductice Reactance Xl to the right of the lowerst SWR point, or higher in frequency.


Hope this helps.
