If someone would be so kind to lead me to the offending boards I would appreciate it. I have a Paragon and am totally unfamiliar with the anatomy of this rig. Perhaps a picture or two of the boards that may require re-soldering.

Thank you

My Paragon had that problem - its easy to fix by resoldering the PLL
modules.  I didn't find it necessary to pull all the parts off, etc... I
just reflowed the solder and the problem hasn't been back since.

Mine had a bad solder joint due to temperature variations that
eventually allowed a part lead to pull loose from the solder blob on the
PCB.  Re-flow fixed it.
