As I mobile around while monitoring the output of my 224.18 MHz repeater as I 
have done for many years (it has been on the air since the late 70's), I have 
never heard any kind of strange signals on its output freq. or any 220 output 
freq. I have a 3 band Kenwood in the car and am used to hearing signals break 
the squelch on certain 2M and 440  frequencies, but never 220. The past few 
weeks, I have heard signals (CW, no modulation noticed) of a fairly strong 
nature break the squelch on 224.18 MHz, much like the signals that break the 
squelch on certain 440 repeater output freqs, which were eventually traced to 
cable TV leakage. 

I am wondering if anyone else has heard signals of this nature on the 220 band? 
I know of three places within a few miles of my house that emit these signals. 
I am going to take my talkie out one of these days ands see if I can "home" in 
on one of these new signals.
