I know lots of people that use to use 6 meter that had problems of harmonics from the CB band. I've got a friend over on the the next mountain north of me that tried a 6 meter repeater a few years ago. Lots of the kids around town were using the export cb's back then, they all use cellphones now. They used regular channel 3 on the cb band, but would drop down one band sometime to 26.535, which a double of was 53.070. I can't remember if it was his exact repeater freq, or just close, but it was tripping the repeater constantly. It took a while for him to figure it out, finally listened to them and recognized a couple, they were in a class he was teaching, as he was the local VE at that time. I think he gave up on the repeater as the strong skip later would harmonic it also. He still has a fine 2 meter repeater on a 250 tower that pretty well covers the state and into surround states when the conditions are good. |
