We have one around here too. IIRC they can do up to 50 Watts tx
power too right?

I've got an interference problem
  affecting two of my 900mhz towers.
  Attached is a Airview scan of what I'm seeing, the
  910mhz signal is
  the concern. It is intermittent, usually occurring in
  the early to mid
  morning for a few minutes or up to hours.
  
  My first thought is baby monitor/cordless phone but
  I'm seeing it on
  the south facing sector of two towers, separated by 3
  miles
  north-south distance. The south tower sees it at
  around a -60 and the
  north tower around a -70. These are 100-120ft towers
  in a heavily
  wooded area, I would not expect ground-level
  interference to be
  visible from both, right?.
  
  So, any suggestions as to possible sources? Driving
  around with an
  antenna is my next step, but hard to do on an
  intermittent signal.

Reviewing my logs actually it looks like it may sometimes start in
middle of night. If I look at noise floor on the sector, it degrades
starting early as midnight, gets worst early morning like 5-6am and
then goes back to normal around 8 or 9. Thats what the past few nights
show. The only time I actually get stations dropping offline is in the
6-9 timeframe. Yes does happen on weekends a well. Some kind of
