It is not too simple to measure phase with a additional circuitry.  However, 
it is simple to move the frequency of the antenna analyzer and see the 
Reactance change,  IF it is increasing with frequency it is inductive 
reactance, (+); if decreasing with frequency increase, it is capacitive 
reactance, (-).

Once you get used to that, and make a little reminder note to paste on the 
analyzer case, you can do the check easily and remember which type of 
reactance change you are seeing re frequency.
