Default Longevity of Coax and Antennas

I've had my Antenna Supermarket Eavesdropper Dipole up for about 4 years
now.
Lately, it seems that reception isn't what it used to be.
Could it be the antenna and coax?
Or is it more likely that reception conditions are lousy?
If you think it is the antenna, could you please suggest a replacement
antenna and high grade coax system for me?
Please keep it simple, I really don't want to get into all the theory and I
don't have a lot of time to research and construct an antenna.
Thanks all.
Lenny
