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.
