Hi Roland,
Glenn Silver (k3gls) - I'll take the antenna if it is still available. I live in the development behind you. I can pick it up early next week.

Dear all, 
I have a 6 mtr, 2 mtr and 440 tri band vertical that isn't working right.  I replaced it yesterday with a  Diamond V2000A and then I took the failed antenna apart, really easy, one set screw and the whole antenna slides out of its probably 8-10 ft fiberglass radome. I think it was an MFJ but one piece antenna, not like the 2 piece one they have today. 
  
I see no physical problems with the antenna proper but there are 2 small pc board with capacitors that act as some function in a couple of places of the stacked verticals. 
Possibly the capacitors are bad but if anyone wants the antenna its free. 
  
I think you will find the physical wire part and all is ok, possibly capacitors  bad? Its been up for probably 10 years, heat and cold damage to capacitors  possible if that is the problem. 
  
Take care,
