See, that's what I was saying.  The local 2-meter repeaters don't bleed into 220 at all.  There are three repeaters high altitude (shortest is 320 ft. HAAT) within a mile of my apartment that should just saturate the input but I never hear them.  So if that were the case, I should hear the voice repeaters, too, and not just the lower power digi (which is also lower altitude at only 60 feet HAAT).
