Aux RX switch on the back of the radio. Needs cleaning.

Hey All,
On my Omni VI Opt 3, the RX periodically drops off 20 to 25db, using a
6db/S-unit scale. If I wiggle the RF gain it can pop back, or if I go key
down for one “dih.” I haven’t tried simply closing the PTT to restore (as
opposed to any transmission) but I think that would also do it.
I’d think “Relay” or “Diodes” if it only popped back with closing the
PTT/sending; I’d think bad solder joint if it was only the RF gain. What’s
interesting is that the RX is not lost, just significantly
reduced/attenuated.
Your thoughts?
Thanks,
Art
