I would bet one or more sets of the set screws holding the elements together have come loose. When this happens, the antenna will still present a perfect 50 ohm load, but perform poorly. But,  he doesn't complain that he's having any trouble on his receive side, so how can it be the antenna.... If a 2 meter repeater antenna is broken, it'll affect both receive and transmit, and likely have severe duplex noise which again he doesn't complain about having that either. Kevin Custer Yahoo!
