John,

Thanks for your help! That sort of problem has been seen before and is
usually due to a broken solder joint at one of the RF switches. The fix
is often as simple as applying liquid flux to all the switches and
reflowing them with hot air. I'm happy to do that if the board is sent
back to me.

Mike
