Good luck. I hate trying to locate interference sources. If it only occurs for 1-2 seconds once every 4 minutes, that will be even more difficult.
Maybe at least you can determine what frequency and channel width it is using, and the signal level. To figure out if it is on the exact same frequency, or maybe an adjacent channel but so strong it is overloading the receiver front end. I know there are some high powered paging systems around 930 MHz, not sure what would be up at 950. Is the STL analog or digital? And is it like a backhaul link with tons of fade margin, or could a relatively modest signal interfere with it?

Going to visit sites tomorrow.. The FM frequency is 97.5 MHz and transmitter checks out as well as antenna and waveguide. I do know 895-900MHz is getting hosed from across border as well as Verizon's PCS bands from new provider across border. Going to take SA up the mountain and see what it shows .. The four minute interval intrigues me...as in SCADA system polling...the utilities do use nearby frequencies...any ideas from my fine feathered friends welcomed...
