Intermodulation Noise
Intermodulation noise/interference/distortion is the undesired combining of several
signals in a nonlinear device, producing new, unwanted frequencies, which can cause
interference in adjacent receivers located at repeater sites. Not all interference
is a result of intermodulation distortion.
