Due to the fact of no rain/moisture, I am thinking it can't be the caps
leaking moisture in the tubes, so I am thinking it must be the Balun.

I believe that if the problem was with the balun, the SWR would be an issue
on all bands. Having messed with with KLMs and specifically the KT34XA for
years, my guess is one or both of the DRIVEN elements has a problem...shorted
cap tube ( dust, dirt, spider web, piece of metal) or something not making
contact.
Did the SWR on 20 change or has it always been 1:6?
