Dave: There is a standard Point-Point 30MHz channel allocation centered at 6197.24 MHz which fits.

Dave update: I have not had a chance to make any measurements at the site yet but the interference appears to be consistent with what was identified in https://bugs.nrao.edu/browse/WO-7315 first opened in July, 2020. The interference is from a microwave link transmitting from Gray Hill to Smith-Bagley west of Datil. This link traverses the North Arm and almost directly across BN7. The interference detected on the West Arm is likely a sidelobe of the microwave antenna.

ea18,ea22,ea24 A2C2 always have it, though sometimes mild. ea06,ea17,ea26 occasionally have it.

Easily seen in finalcals stage of pipeline, "final amp time cal" and "final amp freq cal" tabs.
