Sounds like a flaw in manufacturing of the filters. They could have been contaminated before sealing or the seals failed in service. Might be a good idea to keep a few on hand in a vacuumed sealed container. A good question to ask the customer is if the radio is used or stored in a damp and or humid environment.
Good Video - Thanks for sharing !!

Do you have trouble sourcing ceramic filters? Are they OEM form yeasu ?
