It happened rather quickly, which leads me to think it is a trap  failure

I had a TH3-JR and started to have poor  receive issues that could be 
corrected by keying the transmitter for a split  second.  Well, the problem 
slowly 
got worse.  I finally pulled the  antenna down and checked the traps.  Every 
screw inside each trap was  loose.  I suspect you have a feedline or matching 
network connection  that's gone south, and not the traps.  Check inside the 
shack 
 first.
