Try orienting the yagi horizontally. That should increase side rejection of
the offending signal.

Although it really only masks the problem, you can use CTCSS tone to avoid
hearing the distant transmitter. Of course, the repeater you're linking to
must encode CTCSS, and your link must decode it.
A more technical approach is to use a modest-gain Yagi antenna pointed
directly at the offending
For now I received permission to link directly on their input until
the club installs a remote base and yagi next spring.
There repeater is about 20 air miles away. I am using a 5 element UHF
Yagi about 45 feet up a 170 Rohn 65 at my hub site!
The Yagi is facing due West. The link works
You can try lowering the antenna.
You can try a better antenna, one with a better front to back ratio
and better side lobe rejection.
If that does not work, you can try something that we do to our
microwave dishes when we receive off axis interference, place a
shield near the side of the yagi
