Hi-
My mountaintop QTH has two FM / TV towers , one within a few tenths of one mile, the other 1.5 miles away, and one AM tower still within line of sight perhaps 4-5 miles away on another peak. With any receiver I have built of unshielded design, the QRM from these towers has been for the better part unbearable, though occasionally controllable with the use of a trap on the lead-in. Sometimes new neighbors even report picking up the signals on their telephones and answering machines.
OTOH, my K2 has never experienced any QRM whatsoever from these stations. Given my history that was a concern I had while contemplating its purchase. I am curious to know the source of your problem, so as Vic has requested, Tom, please do keep us posted.
