Elements shouldn't have anything to do with it. If it was fine at 24m, it
should be the same at 28m.
I don't understand your comment because you said you have no dip but the
swr is 1.5 @ 7050 and 1.8-2.0 at the edges. Isn't that a dip? How is that
different than the way it was before?

The 402CD is very predictable and very reliable. I suspect it's fine.
