sudden
the SWR went up well over 5:1 on all 5  bands the antenna covers (20-10
meters).
 
    What you need do is start at the antenna and  work your way back. 
Measure the SWR at the feedpoint and then go back thru the  balun, feedline, 
switches, etc. Something'll pop out.
 
    It's been my experience that most SWR problems are  feedline related.
