Maybe, but it doesn't sound like it... and even if they did, it's going to be pretty tough to know that they're purposely trying to interfere versus just too stupid or lazy to try and avoid your stuff.
We had a competitor put up a new 3.65ghz LTE radio awhile ago in the same town where we've had a 3.65ghz Canopy AP for years... one day our Canopy suddenly starts working like crap - I run the spectrum analyzer, and find they have their radio running on a 20mhz channel right in the very center of the band... meaning that the only way I could avoid them was to go down to a 10mhz channel. Fortunately, we only had a few customers on it, so I didn't care that much... but the fact that they put it right the middle of the band instead of at one of the edges certainly annoyed me. That could very well have been intentional, but I assume it was just poor planning on their part... or maybe they even had some sort of semi-valid reason for doing that - I have no way of knowing, and if it was intentional, I'm fairly sure they wouldn't tell me if I asked.
