Id figure id post here and gather your opinions first before I email a local mobile pager company over a concern of some pretty severe spurs of interference I have been receiving lately. Ive never really had any problems with this company's pager system before until probably the start of the summer. Its starting to bleed through my scanner feed 24/7 now, I used to have an outdoor antenna but i have now put on a rubber duck to try to reduce the sensitivity. It also opens up my Minitor pager at my house and through town, as well as most of my 2m equipment that isnt PL'ed.
If I were, does it look like I have a legitimate complaint? I also live about the same distance from a NOAA station at 1kw and never had a problem with interference, this is where my concern comes from. I don't want to look like the rear end of a horse, just want to be courteous to this company. It seems like this is a growing issue, and if there is something wrong on their end, its taken care of.
I have attached some images from my SDR to show you the pager signal vs the noise floor. Two specific images are of one near the local EMS dispatch frequency of 154.430 and another of the pager spur near my company's AVL frequency. There are many more spurs, I just included two examples.
This pager is running at 500w about 10 miles from my home. The sdr was set at 0db gain through a diamond x50 antenna.
