Hi John,
I began experiencing the same issue again yesterday, and after some testing I discovered the center conductor in the 2m side of the duplexer was loose. Time to replace a connector I guess.
73!

Or could it be that overpriced Diplexer in the handle?? Can you seperate the 2 bands and test without the Diplexer??

... having a hard time with the Arrow ... stuck the duck on, and I can get into all the repeaters fine ...
Check out Arrow ops on both 2M and 440 - and see if there might be a short or problem with either of the gamma matching elements.
Are there any connectors or jumpers between the Arrow's leads and your equipment? If so, check their integrity.
It just sounds like it's going to be a simple fix, Zack!
