Sounds like an intermittent!  I HATE THEM!!!  But what an opportunity to
check over your system.

Now comes the fun.  Changing out every piece of coax, checking every
connection, cleaning every contact....  What a PITA!  But what a feeling
when you finally find it and fix it!  Could be as simple as a loose ball of
solder in a connector.

Good luck sir.

Oddly... last night it started working... for about an hour... now it's back
to not working again.

(I drove three hours last night and had plenty of time to try.)
