Hi All,
Yesterday a neighbor, who lives across the
street put up a CB verticle and began transmitting. Bad enought I am
going to have to buy a high pass filter because of the severe TVI
distortion on my cable channel 2, worst is the fact that when he
transmits he wipes out completely 20-12 meters audio on my ic765. On 40
meters weak signals are blanked out. Does this sound like maybe he is
running illegal power? Is there a suggestion I can make to the neighbor?
My question is what can I do? I know on field
day and dx-pedtions this problem must be resolved somehow with multiple
antennas and power,perhaps there is something I can do to my coax?. I
have a Quad on a tower and an R7 verticle in my yard, I have station and
tower grounded, and I use a low-pass filter. I also have an icom amp and
feel that if I transmit the same would happen to his receiving on 11
meters? Everyone around can see my towers and antennas; however, this
neighbor has a huge tree in front of his house and his CB verticle is
concealed. I am waiting for the neighbors to come down on me thinking
it is me disrupting their tv's. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
