Wow.  this is not about 14th harmonic - it doesn't work like that - this'll
be about desensitised receiver or possible intermod products of a number of
strong local transmissions (if its anything to do with this at all).  Also
this band is normally for keyed transmissions - when the telemetry kit you
later described need to send some information (infrequently) it keys the
transmitter and modulates the carrier.  It would be very unusual for this to
be permanently keyed, so most of the time there would be no signal to give
you grief.  If this transmitter were the source (doubtful) you would see
intermittent probs.
