Hi, Linda:
I have only one cochlear emplant which I have had about a year. Before I had bone conduction headband in one
ear and back of the ear on other side. I do not experience any interference on any repeater on
146.67 here in Baltimor. I do not understand single sideband on HF however. My cochlear
came from BAHASTCOCHLEAR.
Good luck correcting the problem.
