Tom....those freqs are not even close to any R/C activity on the ARRL band
plan.
http://www.arrl.org/band-plan
Most of the R/C activity was on 53.100 and up every 100kc to 53.800 anyway.
There are so few 6m repeaters and so little activity in the upper part of
the band that guys were not happy going to the lower freqs in the ARRL band
plan.
Occasionally channel 2 TV stations might interfere with the upper freq....I
think it was 53.8....but now that TV transmission has changed
frequency....there shouldn't be any problems.
But as Gary said....flying on 2.4G has totally resolved the interference
problem.

To the group.
This could be someone with a old R/C aircraft transmitter on 50 MHz.
There was 10 channels at the low end of six meters that were (by gentleman's
agreement) for the purpose of r/c flight years ago.
Just a guess, as almost all r/c flying is now on 2.4 GHz.
