Definitely make sure the antenna cap is on...crazy I know but it makes a difference. Also make sure you are taking the readings out in the wide open away from any other large metal objects or power lines...I set up my antennas in a large open parking lot or field.

What are your SWR readings on the following channels 1, 20 & 40 ?
