Fixing it by changing bands and weak reception afterwards is the key to this. No SSB is also a clue. I would say you have a problem in the switching between TX and RX. It is not the RF side of things (e.g. switching diodes) as it would not reset, it must be in the control signals. Somehow the +TX and +RX control lines are not doing what they should be. The fact that is does still TX OK probably means the +TX line is fine. I would concentrate on the +RX line. Also look for any bad contacts or short circuits. This could also be a software glitch, and a full reset to factory defaults may clear it up.
