Mark,

I've had this very problem in the past, and I've just used trial and error
to avoid co-channel interference. - I can see the reason for not using n
+/-
1, - I never use immediately adjacent channels, but what's the thing with n
+/- 5 or n +/- 9??

I have read the document, but I'm not clear what is meant by the
"image
channels" and the VCR/Oscillator channels in relation to any given
channel
number....

Just curious!

Paul G.
