Had one plane I was helping a friend with and it would what we thought was loosing bind. Well turned out to be the little satalite receiver wire. Every time the bind plug was inserted it would move the wire enough to work. Then after he would put everything back together it would not make contact anymore.

The way the system works is if you don't have enough antennas then it won't bind. Once bound it can loose an antenna and still work. But next time you turn power on it won't connect.
