Are you near a military base at all? I have intermittent problems with my
Moseley Starlinks on two different stations here in Savannah and there are
days when I have a lot of BERs on my receivers. Whenever I use a SA during
those time periods I notice a lot of different frequencies bouncing around.
Of course no one at either base knows what I am talking about but my STLs go
right in between the two of them.

Or a little moisture in a connector.  I'd put my meter on the line.   
Should look like a DC open.  Any significant resistance should be  
suspect.
