Just forwarding for reference. The original poster didn't "reply-all"
when she responded to my post asking for more info. Now anyone who
doesn't reply all on this thread only emails me. (Which is OK, it's a
slow email day here) But it's Monica who'd be interested in the
responses -- and any other radio-link users I imagine.

I have worked with radios and SQL Server. We had a similar situation
when a particularly windy day blocked the line-of-sight between the two
antennas. This may not be your problem at all, but it is something worth
checking. If not, you may wish to have somebody run diagnostics on the
radios to check the link during a downtime...
