Does anyone know how one reports interference to or from federal radio systems?
The FCC can receive complaints online, but the IRAC website shows no online contact paths. Nor does the site say anything about reporting interference.
The situation I wish to report is actually interference between DOD-related frequencies. The Watervliet Arsenal in NY state has a 4-channel conventional P25 repeater system in the 385 MHz range. Whenever they transmit, digital buzzing can be heard on several UHF milair frequencies.
I am several miles away from the Arsenal, so it's not overload. It happens on numerous different scanners, with and without attenuation. With a digital scanner, I can recover the voice and NAC from whatever frequency I hear the signal on.
So, how do I tell the feds that two of their services are interfering with each other? I'm pretty sure any pilots who hear the interference would have no way of identifying its source.
