It would be interesting to know how the antenna would have performed without
feedline distortion by using with a choke-balun, however you did the test
correctly following the manufacture's instructions.

My educated guess is that the primary effects of a serious common mode choke would be to prevent the nulls from being filled in by common mode coupling from the transmission line. I would not expect to see the forward gain affected.
