With all the rain and ice we've had lately I'd be that a connector got water
in it.

On top of the power line QRN...
I recently noticed that my KT-34A has a significant mismatch on 15 m:
about 3:1. A week ago, I didn't have this problem. It still has F/B
and seems to otherwise work OK. Anyone out there with any ideas as to
what might have changed? I was hoping for a windy day so that I could
check for loose hardware but, of course, we have a calm day. I don't
see any changes when I rotate it, but I have to wonder of all the ice
and wind has finally done it in. Note that it still seems perfectly
fine on 20 m and 10 m, something I find odd because the 15 m traps
have to be OK for that to be the case. The mismatch appears to be
independent of frequency.
Any ideas as to what might have changed?
