When you say "signal degrades" 10dB what do you mean? Where are you measuring
this "degredation" and what are you mesuring it with?
Do you have a spectrum analyzer? If not, rent one and look at your signal from
a mile away when everything is working properly. When the problem occurres,
look at your signal from the same location.
