Compared to expensive two way radios, scanners have consumer grade wide coverage receivers that are poorly designed. Turning on your attenuator can help. Installing expensive filters can reduce intermod caused by a particular strong station. You can't eliminate the cause, you can only hide the symptoms.

But - if it's truly intermod - it's the same frequency as the one you want. Unless their is a tone (ctss etc.) you can't eliminate it.
- our local ham had intermod on the input from a paging system - we finally re-located after spending way too much time and $$$=
