I wondered if there was a way to validate the actual split point.
Are you trying to get a measurement of length (feet, or meters), or SWRs, or something else? If you measured the wire lengths when you made the antenna, do you not remember the actual measurements?
Otherwise, you can measure the antenna's impedance in each band you use to find out if the value is acceptable to you.
Why did you choose off-center feed? That may give a clue to what type of measurement you're looking for.
If you were following a published design, do your measurements disagree with the expected results?
Hmm. I think my real question is what do you mean by validate? In what units should the results of nanovna measurement be?
