Flat SWR on all bands.

SWR is NOT a measure of antenna performance -- it has a small fractional dB effect on signal strength (the ability of the rig to put power into the line, and the loss in the line). Gain vs frequency and uniformity of horizontal and vertical pattern vs frequency are what matter for a directional antenna.
