Update: Just removed the radio and powered it up to the antenna at the helm.
Asked for a radio check and got some distant replies.

Evidently a PBRAM (problem between radio and mast, taken from the IT
shorthand for stupidos: PBKAC), so I'll have to track that down. At least
it means I won't have to haul it off/repair the radio, though I'm not
thrilled at the thought that I might have a cable problem, the mast being a
real stinker for doing another cable, should it be required! With any luck,
a new antenna will cure that problem.

Stand by for more results!
