The coax run is about 90 feet or so - maybe 100. One other thing - the
wire I am using is some CAT 5 cable and it has 6 wires in it. I just
stripped and wrapped the wires on the end where I hooked the coax and
the other end also.
The coax I am using is some I got at the local Good Will store here. It
is brand new, still on the roll, Amphenol TFC-T10 coax. There was about
1/3 of the roll left and cost me $6. 73

It looks like you have a lot of loss somewhere in the system, unless you
have a really long coax run.
If the run is only 100' or 150' then I don't think you would see such a flat
SWR curve unless either the coax is damaged or there is some other lossy
element in the system.
