Yup! ya gotta keep in mind da historical perspective! Back in the early
days of wireless the bands were allocated to be very much indeed
harmonically related. That's not a bug, its a feature. Ya need ta
test & use the equipment the way God intended it to be used.
Here's an example of a ``prohibitively costly'' scheme to get
rid of the birdies:
How about a seperate receiver for each 10 mhz segement through the
entire HF spectrum?
That would ``get rid of the birds'' and be ``for the birds'' as well.
It's ok to split hairs, but lets be technically correct with the
procedure we use for splitting the hairs!
Stuart has some very good points here. He he dows a good job of
bringing things back to reality...
