Hi Jim,
What you have sounds like classic reed relay contact problems in the
passband filter circuit. If it is under warranty I would send it back.
If not, I would contact Garry Green at Ten-Tec and he can tell you how to
troubleshoot to determine which one is the culprit using a refrigerator
magnet on an ice cream stick! Good luck!
