I've got a 1622 radar that was new in box as of 1.5 years ago when I installed it. Now it's behaving oddly. Sometimes when beginning to transmit the display fills with reflections, out of orientation of course, for 1-2 full sweeps, then on the third sweep the display changes to a blob in the middle with no other echos visible.
Sometimes if you enter standby and then transmit again the problem is cured. Other times you need to power down the unit and then start it again.
I've already had the belt pop off, so I know what that looks like. This is similar but the belt is attached. Is it possible that the reed switch needs to be closer to the antenna? Any other ideas?
for a video of the problem, follow this link. Go to 1:25 to see what happens.
