What I see in a TDR setup is less series inductance. The context is a coplanar waveguide PCB trace with a gap that's bridged by the resistor.

The impedance bump at cm 3.5 is inductive...

and if you flip it over, it's a lot smaller

The capacitive bump around cm 1 is the SMA connector transition.
It really helps to flip them.
