Dave-

Assuming you don't have access to a network analyzer, put a 200 ohm resistor 
of adequate power on the antenna terminals and measure the SWR. Or, If you 
have a known good 4:1 balun, connect the antenna sides together, terminate one 
with a 50- ohm dummy load, and measure the SWR into the other one.
