SM120 intermittent recieve?

I have an SM120, and when I transmit on a portable from anywhere farther than maybe 50feet from the radio/antenna, the signal cuts in and out. What I do hear is clear, but then it cuts out. I turned my portable on and the signal was crystal clear. Any idea what could be wrong with it?

Thank you

Generally when the signal can still be received, but at a much reduced sensitivity level, it's an indication that one of the 1st I.F. crystal filters has gone bad. That's just an educated guess, it could be many things.

sorry to bring this back....

but it seems to be intermittent, like itll work sometimes but not others...

i solved this problem by making it the TX side of the repeater :lol: :lol:
