2.  As with all antennas, I can tune the antenna for a variety of
resistances and reactances.  I've been shooting for an impedance
magnitude of around 50 ohms.  Possibly some combination of R and X is
more optimum?

The ideal is a resistance of 50 ohms and reactance of zero. However, if this is unobtainable, try to zero out the reactance and let the tuner take care of the resistance.
