Here is a long-shot guess. I had a situation where I could reliably do
an interactive ssh between two hosts. I could not do an scp though. 

I use the bash shell everywhere. My problem was that my .bashrc file
caused text output to occur. I had put in a debugging message
	echo entering .bashrc at `date`

When I removed this statement from my .bashrc, I was able to use scp.
