I am curious why you are feeding your C3 with 75 ohm feedline.

Just a bit of anecdotal evidence to support Tom's latter point -- when I
measure the lowest-SWR point on my C-3 at the shack end of a long 75-ohm
feedline, it appears right where it's supposed to be - 14.225.  When I
add 2 feet of jumper and my SB-220 to the circuit, the "resonant
frequency" shifts to 14.450!  Whatever else is happening, it's clear
that the antenna's resonant frequency has not changed.
