I appreciate this information... Is this worth fixing? Costly?

: Thank-you in advance!
: 1st. my equipment & set-up: Cobra 148
: (approx 22 years old) with Talk Back
: installed into radio, 5 pin Turner Mic, 250
: watt SuperStar Kicker and Wilson 2000 antena
: I run this in my tractor trailer with radio
: wired to electrical post in the cab and the
: Kicker going directly to the battery.
: My problem is this: Once in a while I loose
: my receive - I can tell immediately - the
: only comparison that I can associate with it
: is it's like a water hose that gets a kink
: in it where as some signal gets through on
: transmital & receive but it's in a real
: limited area (about a 1/2 mile) - when it
: happens I click the mic a few times and
: sometimes that will kick everything back to
: normal operation - if that doesn't work I
: will shut everything down and power back up
: (which has never rectified the problem)
: drive for a while then start clicking the
: mic again and this will usally re-engage
: whatever is malfuctioning - the only thing
: that has ever seemed to work 100% was when I
: replaced the coax between the Kicker &
: Radio (I was using a 12' and switched to a
: 9') everything has been working great for
: about a month & half then all of a
: sudden the same problem happened yesterday
: My question is: Is it possible to "Burn
: out Coax Cables" that's what seems to
: be what's happening - everything is streched
: out "Not" rolled up together - I
: beleive everything to be grounded properly -
: It's weired just seems to get backed up a
: little then it releases itself - I know when
: it happens immediately and like wise when it
: releases "I know it immediately"
: I will entertain any and every thoght that
: anyone may have!
