First homebrew antenna and a question

I now find reasonable SWR on most bands (WARC, not so much). Here's the
deal: min SWR comes in right at 3.5 MHz, 6.75, 13.43, 18.07 and 29.06.
It appears that I made the classic newbie mistake...antenna too short.

Actually, it appears to be too long on 75m, 40m, and 20m.
