I agree with Kevin. Try it.
Keep your remote base TX output as low as you can. Try always to
work with
repeaters and users with big signals. It amazing what a big
Kevin is quite correct ... so you will do well to follow his
suggestions.
Is part of the been-there ... done that.

Almost forgot. If things don't work out, you may be able to accomplish
what
you want by changing to a Micor or Master II receiver. Recency was never
known for its ability to be very selective and the receivers were always
prone to overload problems

Kevin is right, I am going to just expierment, others has done it. But as I
was thinking about it, actually the repeaters that I am going to be using is
mainly in one direction, a good high gain beam in that general direction
horizontily polorized might help on the intermod. Others has done it,
Ken is right, this problem is existing even into a dummy load, I have not
begun to expierment with the antenna issue yet. The lowest power setting on
the Kenwood is 5 watts, so that is what I have to work with.

frequencies will be impossible to use. It all depends on the frequency
separation vs. antenna/filter isolation.

Would there be any advantage to putting the radio in an RF box for
shielding?

You're asking too much of physics by trying to run a remote base on the
same band as your repeater
Trade the antenna for a shielded dummy load, or possibly 1000 feet of
rg400 to attenuate the signal down.

I guess it depends on the amount of filtering you can have for each of
the frequencies you want to use, and the cable switching needed to use
the cavities for that freq. Imagine a coax switch with a port for every
frequency you want to activate, now duplicate that so that you can
transmit and

Don't let other discourage you so much. Just because their experience
hasn't been a good one doesn't mean you should give up.
Try moving the antenna around (up/down - back/forth) while doing a link,
you may

I run a star uhf linked system all on uhf between

but there are many factors influencing the end result
