Although I really appreciate enthusiasts like you and Ph2ter with their job and enthusiasm in this field, still calculators like this one, at the end of the day is just a calculator.
It doesn't mean that you are really what the calculators show you are.
I also think that so many samples just skew up the results.
Basically no chance for anyone in the Balkans to be only 5-6% Slavic apart from some Greek islanders and isolated populations like Maniots.
For more realistic results, just a few ancient populations is enough, especially if it's historically verified as well.
A model like this one for the Southern Balkans is enough I think:

ASk randwulf at anthrogenica to help you with co-ordinates. He did this for me with updated spreadsheet and the fits are very close.
All moderns:

That looks blurry...
I mean, wtf, Druze, Belorussian, Greek, like one big stew.
Overall, what you need to know is the average of your native population, whether you are southern, northern, eastern or western shifted.
That might give you some clues about your modern ancestry.
Even PCA's would work just fine.
Some random chap, without any experience in this staff, might think that he really does have a Belorussian or a Druze ancestry just by looking at that nMonte model...
