You very likely could be right.

I thought I had checked all of that thoroughly this past week-end, but I 
obviously missed something.

Now, I'm chomping at the bit to go out there again, and finish the 
troubleshooting.

If I can find the culprit feed line segment, and fix it, then it's just a 
matter of getting the antenna up to a reasonable height.
