No. Read up on how to properly use your meter. You need to tune antenna as close to feedpoint as possible. 1ft coax jumper or less, or even a barrel connector and go direct to feed point (connector) of antenna. Or you'll need to use a 1/2 wave electrically tuned coax jumper. Here is the formula to do this as IDK what coax you are using and the Velocity Factor (VF), will be needed to make it the right length.
Formula:
492xVF/freq (in MHZ).
So for example. Your coax is .85 VF.
492x .85/ 27.205= 15.55ft coax jumper needed to tune antenna at 27.205MHz. Now that I have confused the shit out of you LOL, don't worry it did me too, take this formula and use it to tune your antenna the proper way using your antenna analyzer. Then once this is done, you can use whatever length of the same coax you want and the reading should be the same as when you tuned the antenna as now your antenna system if done correctly is at 50ohms. And you will have the correct VSWR readings as well as R and X. Good luck and keep reading, the more you learn about your antenna analyzer and how to use it, you'll enjoy tuning antennas and it will be a breeze!! Hope this info helps!! Have fun!!
