I presume that you disconnected the feeder from the balun when you did
the DC Ohms test? If not, there is something wrong because you should
see almost a dead (DC) short through the primary of the balun.
I must admit I put off replacing my antenna until I was forced to. Might
be the way to go. :-)

I was not seeing any SWR shifts on this antenna. A check with an ohmmeter shows
no shorts.
This antenna is currently on the ground due to other work on the tower. I’m
considering replacing the antenna entirely. It’s been up over 10 years, and the
traps could use re-work.
