I tried to measure them a few years ago, but I got inconclusive
results.. It's hard to come up with a good test fixture (parasitic C has
a huge effect).
You might be able to figure it out by sweeping the whole antenna and
looking for the bumps in the impedance curves, or by modeling it and
adjusting the trap characteristics until the measured data matches the
model.
