"Three volunteers OE1DMB, ZL3RX and N6IZW tested 4 radios including a
D700 last week and they have verified that even with widest
in-satellite-band separation on 2 meters (145.800 and 145.990) and 100
foot antenna separation, that desense (blocking) occurs at any power
level above about 30 mw. Its slightly better up to 100 to 500 mW or so
at the 144 MHz uplink frequency. But 5W and 10W will always block any
other 2m receiver on ISS... For UHF and the same 100' separation,
operation at the 2 Watt level is possible with in-band splits over 1
MHz or so. See their Data: <a href="http://www.ew.usna.edu/%7Ebruninga/pec/pec/oe1mb-test.pdf"><b>OE1DMB</b></a>,
