Hardware, Cabling, Installations / Com Port Slowly Becomes intermittent and Totally Unusable

Hello Forum--I've been running my remote station for about three months with a remote controlled KPA500 and I've completely lost remote control. The TS480 and 1258 RRC remote control works fine and no complaints on the radio operation. At first the KPA control was intermittent and then began to show errors on the utility screen (ERR:FC?0).. now it won't communicate at all. Resetting the control RRC worked one time, but subsequent resets at control and radio do not seem to wake anything up. I'm plugged into COM1 on both ends and running the radio end on a separate laptop. The fact that it worked for three months tells me I had it set up OK. So where to start troubleshooting? Here's a link to some pix of the setup: http://www.valhallatreefarm.com/WB7ELY/remoteB/remoteB.htm
