Jerry,

Try removing C18 on the LPF-Control or grounding the receive pins on the TR switch.? I think the feedback is getting in through U1 & U8.? Maybe the control logic is not correct.

?No progress on my oscillation problem. I figured maybe it was external

disconnected the BPF entirely & replaced it with an SMA barrel...no
difference.

I noticed that a few of my SMA connectors were fraying where the cable
joined the crimp.
Peeled off a bit of insulation and soldered them to the crimp ferrule.

No difference.
