Yes it's clean, only a tiny -85 carrier (link is -38 RSL) but I am starting
to think that maybe the interfering carrier is not being detected by the
radios integrated spectrum analyzer... Might need to do a secondary scan
with an external device.

around the time the radio started having issues the FBI installed some type
of equipment on the same site, not sure if it is related but it looks like
two sector antennas for land mobile radio? And also a 7ghz cambium link. I
haven't had any luck in locating these transmitters in FCC ULS.
