Isn't it possible to convince most antenna tuners to effectively match "into themself", and dissipate most of the power internally? I accidentally did that with a matching network I was trying to use to tune a weird inductively-coupled plasma setup.
Sounds like he made a weird partially-shorted dipole antenna, and needs a good VNA to answer the rest of his questions.
