I tried out my IC-T7H in the NOSC of a large ISP which was in the basement vault of an old bank.
There was a really good repeater within4-6 blocks of the NOSC and I couln't hear it or anything else on 2 or 79 cm. When I stepped out to the vault and the vault door was closed, everything came back to normal.

Beware a heavily populated commercial radio site. If they have pagers or other digital hardware, the RF noise at HF can be terrible. I am a former owner of mountain top radio sites and have tried operating from my buildings and ended up moving at least 100 yds. from the building. Sites may not be all the same but on my sites you could not operate HF in the building. Lee W6FPO LELAND ZANTESON [EMAIL PROTECTED] Why Wait? Move to EarthLink.
