Bruce:

I don't know about chain link fences causing this, but I do know of a case 
wit symptoms exactly as you describe. It was with an Anexter grid dish and the 
problem was a bad feed horn assembly. Replacing the feedhorn assembly fixed the 
problem

Before the repair, the problem could be triggeredby giving the tower a good 
whack, just enough to set up a vibration. The STL went absolutely nuts!
