Hi Paul

I expect your comment refers to 70cms ?

Jonathans contest ears are fine, however on a heading around 290/300 degrees
from our site we are beaming at the Sudbury TV transmitter site. It isn't
particularly close, but we receive all manner of intermod which limits our
receive capability inland. We've tried different rigs, different preamps and
filters but the result is always the same so it's assumed to be transmitter
generated at the Sudbury site.

I live 8km and line of site from it, and long ago gave up interest in 70cms
from here.

Thanks for trying !

Regards

John G4ZTR (G0VHF/P)
