Almost the same problem in the greater Portland, Oregon area. One
2 meter systems' receiver was a half mile away as two onsite paging
transmitters were 600 kHz apart and 75 yards from the repeater site.
A few years later, one of the paging transmitters was shut down and
the repeater receiver was moved back to the transmitter site.
