After lighting the oven pilot; the pilot stays on fine until the oven reaches temp. When the burner cycles off the pilot goes out

I've seen this. It seems that during the preheat, the pilot and the burner actually reverse roles - the burner is keeping the pilot lit, even though the pilot itself is intermittent for whatever reason.
I'm in agreement with Surf-and-Golf. Clean the pilot tip, which as noted tends to get a bit of rust on it. Then make sure that the thermocouple is properly positioned in the pilot flame (the usual term "bathed in the flame"). I think both are covered in the Atwood manual that came with your TM, or is available online.
