The other way you could help rule out anything on that tower would be to get a list of the transmitters there and listen to their frequency and compare when you're hearing the interference. Make take a day or two to get through them all, but that should help. i.e. Scanner or extra receiver

Hi Roger! Thanks for the info. Bit of bad news on this actually. We sold our old PA to help fund the new one. I received an Email from the guy we were going to buy from in the US who now says he has found another buyer. :( So our repeater is currently off air until we can find another.

In addition to Neil's comment - you would screw up the APRS operation if you do not listen and prevent your own APRS broadcast from going out during another APRS transmission. You could key up on top of the ongoing transmission and both your own and the other packets would be QRMed. 73 - Jim
