I have 3 smoke detectors and 3 CO detectors.
The CO are independent and run off 120 VAC, the smoke detectors are
independent and battery operated. No AC connections. No RFI, 160
through 440. I run the legal power limit 160 through 10. The house is
under the 160 half sloper and within 60 feet on 144 and 440. the other
antennas are 90 feet plus.
Tribander is down, but getting ready to go back up.

To clarify for others, I don't think you mean the detectors are battery
operated. Rather, they (like mine in my hard-wired system) have batteries
(typically 9V) used for backup power.

You have a somewhat unusual configuration compared to most that just
install battery operated, independent units.
Actually not. Wireless smoke detector systems are very common. If one
detector alerts, it alerts all detectors throughout the house. Each unit is
battery operated. But independent units are not installed in modern homes
any more.
