Two components, and the antenna is 50 ohms.

A commercial tuner is a box of relays doing this arithmetic by brute force. If you know what your antenna actually measures, one coil and one capacitor will match it — and you can build them out of what you have. Enter the impedance your analyzer reads and this gives you every network that works, with the parts to wind or buy.

What the antenna measures

Straight off the analyzer, at the feedpoint.
Negative is capacitive.
50 for coax, 75 for TV cable.
