Any comments, anyone, before I remove the vertical and turn to another
design?

First I would check the coax and tuner performance, make sure you have no bad
connections.
When comparing signals against other antennas, keep in mind that vertical is
better performer at low angles - DX. Try the comparison on DX signals rather
than Eu and high angle propagation. You could esay see 20 dB differences, but
check at the beginning of openings to DX areas and see how they compare.
