Sounds like the TR relay.   It is a sealed relay,  mounted on a small PC 
board just behind the aluminum cross member.   Usually supported on wire 
legs in order to reduce the sound of the relay operating.

Be sure the voltage at the radio is 13.8 to 14.8 volts.    Also be sure 
the ground terminal on the radio is connected direct to the ground 
terminal on the power supply.
