You need to use a tuner between your antenna and the radio to avoid the
radio cutting back power to protect itself from high SWR.

You might want to try measurements without the unknown balun.   They might
be better!  Don't get hung up on the need for balun without trying without
first.  I did not use a balun for my first 18 years as a ham, and worked
just as good that way as now with a balun.
