Suddenly no reception on antenna one and no transmit on either, infinite SWR on TX

Suddenly I had no reception on antenna 1. I switched my antenna (I only have one) to antenna 2 and now I had RX. BUT when I hit the Tune function, the SWR's went off the chart and I had to shut down the radio. I rebooted it and then tried to Xmit on antenna 2. SWR's off the chart again. No signal at all when I attach my antenna to Antenna 1. I had not disconnected the antenna at the pass through, this just came out of the blue. Any ideas?
The radio is a 6300 and the software is latest, 2.4.9.

A few things.
First, can you check the antenna with another device like an analyzer or another radio?
Can you do an SWR test to a dummy load?
If you don't have any of the above, then I would export your profiles to save your settings and then do a radio reset. And then, test again.
If that doesn't work and you have confirmed the antenna and all jumper cables are ok, then it would be time to open a support ticket.

For the receive part it could be a blown ESD diode but I don't think that affects TX.0

I had some RX weirdness like this earlier in the week, Saved my profiles, did a reset and everything was good.

I found the problem, mostly operator error (the first place to look.....) Thanks for the suggestions.
