[TowerTalk] log periodics susceptible to out-of-band interference

[Gene Fuller]

Hi Al -

My experience with my 7-60 Mhz LP has been that with my TS-440, where the 
receiver path did not run thru the antenna tuner overlaod/cross mod was 
definitely a problem. With my IC-756 and Pro 2 the receiver path takes 
advantage of the antenna tuner and there's no problem.
