I don't understand the logic here. If the SWR goes high on all bands,
why wouldn't it be logical first to check for water ingress in a
connector, or some similar simple failure, before assuming a major
failure of the antenna? I've seen this symptom quite a few times, and
only once has it turned out to be anything but a connector problem.
