Default Is my antenna working?

Forgive me for being a completely ignorant novice, but I built a
simple ground plane antenna which seemed to cure my directional
broadcast problems (broadcasting over my yard), but I unplugged it for
a while, and now when I try to broadcast the signal is very weak, and
doesn't change even though I unplugged the antenna. In other words, I
was listening to the broadcast right at the Ramsey FM10a transmitter,
and when I unplugged the antenna cable, the signal didn't change. Am
I right in thinking that the coax connection to the antenna is broken
somewhere and that the transmission is coming completely from the
antenna jack of the transmitter?

Thanks for your help.
