I would just shorten the antenna. If you used insulated wire it would
explain the difference.

I have put up a 80 wire vertical in some trees seeing I do not have a
tower. I
cut it 62ft6in so it should be on 3.750 however it seems long and the swr is
1:1 at 3550 or so. I have 10 radials and my longer version worked just fine.
Any feedbck would be helpful.
