The system was designed to tolerate some overlap, and and indeed it does pretty well, till you have several systems all on the same channel, in close proximity.
If there had been some sort of "auto channel" cell software designed into the system, all new boxes would not stay on ch 6, but would start wandering around till they found the lowest interference. The remotes track the base station, and are seldom configured for a specific channel. Would you rather have 3 channels, or 11 ?
