Is it out of band?

Have any of you experienced a MASTR IIe dozing off? No open fuses, no 
loose connections, it just forgets that it is supposed to key up when 
the receiver squelch opens. After resetting the control module, it works 
fine for a day or so and then the problem reappears.


I'd settle for an over-the-air control module reset code (if one 
exists), but would prefer to get to the bottom of this.


Any suggestions?

Good question! It is operating at 144.69 / 145.29. What do you think may be 
going on?

Now this model does use channel elements.

I had a similar problem on 2M, I'll have to dig up the notes and see 
what we did exactly, but if I remember correctly it was a simple fix. 
I'll get back to you over the weekend.

Be sure the control line is terminated.  I have seen m3's get repeat
disable from voice on the control line (even if remote control is not
used).  Vexing problem.  Steve NU5D - BTW that tip came from Pete
Lascelle at GE, or EGE, or Comnet, or MA/COM now days...

Actually I believe Steve has the fix,  We had an unused DC control on 
the IIe that wreaking all sorts of havoc.
