Joe was right. I feel like an idiot! But this experience served as a very effective reminder... I doubt I'll be making this mistake again any time soon. :-)
Service monitors and spectrum analyzers don't live out here in the sticks. So when I had reports of a spur I dragged out my receivers to use as test equipment. I made sure I had several diverse receivers (instead of relying on one) but failed to check the IF schemes to be sure they were really diverse. It turns out all of them use a 455 kHz second IF with low side injection. I did find one receiver with a 450 kHz IF... and the "spur" magically moved 10 kHz. Oops! So it turns out to be the best kind of problem: someone else's. I'm not sure what we're going to do now... at least one person will be adversely affected unless I change repeater frequencies (AGAIN - long story) or he gets a different radio. At least now I can get these Micors off my test bench! There's other stuff in the queue waiting for bench time. Paul N1BUG Yahoo!
