[R-390] Antenna matching

I am curious as to the different methods in use to more closely match
the unbalanced antenna input on the R-390? I am using, at this time, a
Butternut 40/80/160 vertical that has an impedance of approximately 50
ohms. The antenna trim control helps considerably, but it seems more
could be done. I have a wire I will be installing soon, but it too has
a feed point of 50 ohms. I am assuming the best method would be to use
a dipole and ladder line, but I have no plans at this time to do that.
Any suggestions?
