I find it way easier and much more straightforward to simply record the specific X and R at the feedpoint when you install the antenna. Then make it a habit of check that measurement once a year at the antenna feedpoint. If the R is creeping up, then the radials need some work. On the coax. Just disconnect the coax from the feed and do a loss measurement from the station. Again, record and check annually.
