Hi Dick,

Don't be too quick to blame the amplifier relay. It could be your SteppIR
yagi. This is a common SteppIR problem. QSY a bit so that the tuning light
on the SteppIR controller turns on and off. Then tune back and forth over
that frequency and listen for a drop in signal strength. If it occurs then
it is the SteppIR EHU and not your amplifier relay.

73,
