Re: [IRCA] Modern day radio interference

[Charles Rippel <lantareamon@xxxxxxxxx>]

If its cable leakage, the way to get their attention is VIA a different
path.   Check the frequencies associated with a local airport (12X.xx mHz,
approach, GCA, etc...) and see if you can hear it there.  If so,
call the FAA.  CATV facilities are super sensitive to reacting to Safety of
Flight issues.

THAT may get the problem solved perhaps before the weekend....
