Shielding. The Mastr II mobile TX exciter sits right next to the RX LO
chain & couples into it. In many UHF applications this causes no problem
but in high RF environments the RX can "receive" IMD that isn't on channel,
but is a product of a strong off-frequency (~150 to 300 kHz) signal & a
harmonic of the TX fundamental oscillator.
