Default Vertical problem

Hi. Have a new Hustler 6 band vertical. Installed the radials and also buried 75 foot of RG213 coax between shack and antenna. I used a 6 foot peace of coax connected to adjust the antenna with a MFJ-259. Every band was tuned to the middle and SWR was lower than 1.7:1 at the edges. After the adjustments, I reconnected the buried coax to the antenna and on all bands everything had shift up by any where from 200 to 400 khz. Now the rig is seeing greater than 2:1 SWR.
Should I retune the antenna with the MFJ 259 in the shack?
Thanks Vern M0WQR
