Must not be too critical if they are willing to wait 5 days to actually run a test. Running on AT&T time I guess.

Of course, my partner's land line crapped out last Friday, and they can't send a technician out to look at it until tomorrow.

Good luck with them Peter.

    They let you get that close in Class B?  Hmmm...

        Cool. How far from it did you get?

                That is a 100 kW transmitter and a 10 dB antenna.

                Don’t fly your plane too close to those.  I did it once.

                    Probably more pronounced with the kind of power
                    levels they are using on some DTV stations.  I
                    know that at least a couple of DTV stations are
                    transmitting at 90 dBm up on Sutro in SF.

                        a problem when you had two broadcasters at a
                        site where the difference between their
                        frequencies was on a 2 way FM repeater input
                        frequency. Every active electronic device on
                        the whole site could do the same thing.
                        Remember how everyone used to obsess about
                        intermod products at tower sites. Doesn’t seem
                        to be much of a problem any more.  Or perhaps
                        it is but we are all on cell phones now.

                        Oh I know.  Our tower manager at Black Mt.
                        goes semi-ballistic when he sees anything on
                        the tower that is not HDG or stainless or
                        silicon-bronze. Then tells the story of
                        rusting bolts/nuts/washers turning into diodes
                        in the presence of higher-power RF.  I don't
                        know how high the power needs to get, but we
                        have seen some interesting side-effects on
                        unshielded cable and other unshielded components.

                                claim that one of our radio systems
                                was emitting a carrier at 711Mhz and
                                he pointed at where we have a

                                711Mhz doesn’t sound like an IF of
                                either of these systems to me, but
                                I’ve got tickets in with the equipment
                                manuf. It looks like they are some
                                3^rd party AT&T has sweeping buildings
                                downtown. Anyone dealt with these guys
                                before? He told me he measured a -87

                                like a pretty low level to me
                                honestly. Anyone know what the legal
                                limits for spurious emissions are in
                                the 700-800Mhz band?
