    I have changed the way that I do backup and no longer backup the external drive.  Thus the problem is not solved but I have a work around.

The link above states "SSR 2011 does not like swapping of USB drives as a backup destination, especially for base+inc jobs. It is recommended to setup a separate job for each drive, or use the offsite feature by backing up to a fixed location and allowing offsite to sync to the 2 rotating drives."

I do NOT want an EXTRA off site copy.  I have a "separate job" for the single USB drive I have.  I could not find a way to use the offsite feature for a SINGLE backup to a USB drive.
