I found a work around for this.  I use cable TV traps which block 
everything above 700 or 800 MHz or so I don't remember the exact freq 
specs.  Mine are made by Channel Master.

I was also swamped by cellular images on my BC9000s but after I 
installed these traps on each of my 9000s I never had another problem 
with cell images.  Turned a horrid mess into a really good milcom 
scanner.  They'll actually pick up stuff my 780 won't.

BTW as I understand Uniden specifically left those radios wide open as 
far as intermod goes to allow for image reception as a way to get around 
the cellular ban.
