Mike, Does the interfering signal come and go or is it constant?
Does it have any AC component; ie buzz or hum at 60Hz, 120Hz, etc., or any raw buzzing noise? Are there any broiadcast TV stations in the area, DTV or LP translators? Is the UHF pager signal analog, digital or both? What test equipmet do you ahve available? Is the repeater in a poplulated area or remote?

I work on Robins and traverse it pretty much from end-to-end daily. I also have to traverse it quite a ways just to get off of it to go foxhunt this beast. Generally the signals on-base are weak to non-existent. It's bloody amazing how much RF crap is in the air. Using a Google Earth application I can see zillions of sites within earshot. The mixing possibilities are endless! I'm somewhat surprise that we've never heard any audio mixing in with it. 73, Mike WM4B From: Repeater-Builder@yahoogroups.com [mailto:repeater-buil...@yahoogroups.com] On Behalf Of Chuck Kelsey Sent: Saturday, April 24, 2010 3:16 PM To: Repeater-Builder@yahoogroups.com Subject: Re: [Repeater-Builder] Re: Pager Interference Revisited How close is Robins AFB? Maybe?

I've THOUGHT about it, but it didn't make sense, give the circumstances. 73, Mike WM4B
