I am not sure those conflicts exist anymore.   The 147.015 2m repeater, FM
station 104.5, and numerous cell/PCS all sit on the Spotsylvania Harrison
Rd. tower.  Thing like that have become rather common.  I know some farmers
in this area who actually work together as a business and supply various
markets so I cannot rule something like that out.  I will watch the
frequency. for King George.  But it is puzzling though I suspect some
mundane explanation.
