Does this sound like a KAT 500 problem or maybe an RFI problem.

It sounds like a problem somewhere after the output of the power amp, including all interconnecting cables, the feedline, and the antenna. Common problems are loose connectors and/or adapters, junk connectors and/or adapters, connectors poorly installed, moisture somewhere in that path, some defect in the antenna.

The vast majority of connectors and adapters sold to hams are junk. If it isn't stamped "Amphenol" or with a MIL-spec number, it's probably junk.
