Interference is the effect of unwanted energy due to one or a combination of:

• emissions, radiations, or inductions in a radio communication system

It is manifested by:

• any performance degradation
• misinterpretation
• loss of information

These can be extracted in the absence of such unwanted energy (National Spectrum Management 2005).

Interference Reporting

Interference processing is a complex task which justifies the reason for detailed description of any reports made.

Reports may be made by completing a form. In making the report, the following information must be included:

• Name, address and telephone number of the party experiencing the interference
• Complete description of the interfered with Radio station (type, frequency, assignment number, location)
• Data on the occurrence of the interference (when first noticed, time frequency, whether regular or sporadic)
