Andy,
My observations here are consistent with yours -- I regularly see
Doppler on either side of a signal, sometimes even both sides, which
would be consistent with multiple aircraft. And without Doppler, I
always see low level sidebands on locals that are approximately
symmetrical with the P3/SVGA cranked to minimum span. Last season, Trey
and I were seeing a neighbor being much wider than normal. Trey went to
his shack to help him figure it out while I watched on the P3. It was
coming from his Expert amp, and we managed a modest improvement. If I'm
remembering correctly, he was running the amp on the low voltage setting.

The aircraft that can be expected to cause Doppler shifted reflection in the
Phoenix Class B airspace are transport aircraft following Standard Instrument
Departures (SID) and Standard Terminal Arrival Route (STAR) routings. My QTH
is about a mile from a KPHX STAR (BRUSR ONE). On a busy day with winds out of
the East they go by at about one per minute. As they approach from the North I
would expect reflections with a higher frequency. After they pass and move to
the South I would expect reflections with a lower frequency. With multiple
aircraft following the same route I would expect a mix of reflected signal
frequencies spread on each side of the transmitted signal frequency.
