[R-390] Broadcast radio at 2 meg

[b_hagen at sbcglobal.net]

Murph:

Perfectly normal I'd guess. I am within 3 air miles of a 50K watt at 1100KC
and it is present, reduced of course, at 2200 on my 390.

How far away is the station. If it is within 1-2 miles...
1) If you have modified V201, you could be overloading it if the station is
close.
2) If you have an external preamp. Many solid state units use a diode for
static protection, and this can cause it.
3) If the station is High-powered, and you are within a mile or two, you
could be hearing a transmitted harmonic.
