West Valley Amateur Radio Association has had similar results 
running category nAB for large n (10-15). We run 5 watts and use 
K3, K3S, KX3 and Flex radios. We take care in our antenna setup 
to put the antennas in each other's null area.

When we have problems, it is due to batteries running down 
raising the IMD. Swapping in a new battery is the cure.
