Oh, it's difficult to say how close "close" really is, but keep it in mind if you run out of other fixes. The only test is to remove the suspect antenna from the site, and that may not be easy. Disconnecting it or grounding it will not help you diagnose.
Also, I'll ask the dreaded question... You are not using any foil/braid coax (LMR-400, 9913, etc.) for any jumpers are you? If, so, replace it before you do anything else. Or is there some near your antenna for some other purpose?
