Hmm.. This makes me think of something with reflected power into the TX, but it may just be coincidence. In our case, the PLL was tuned after 24 hours of burn-in, to exactly factory spec, but within 6 months it had drifted far enough to be partially unlocking. Worse, the radio didn't detect the unlock, and kept transmitting with the VFO hopping between these two frequencies. I even tied the lock line manually, and the radio just kept right on transmitting!
