I could not find the earlier note about 91 or 92 receive problem, but I just remembered that I had trouble with 91 a few weeks ago and discovered that a network camera that I had observing my antenna was generating a strong signal right on the AO-91 downlink frequency. Ferrites on the CAT5 helped some, but not enough. So until I can examine it more, I power the camera off when I'm working 91.
I found it using an HT and just noticed the squelch breaking as I tuned over the frequency. From then on it just used the HT as a probe. Narrowed it down to the network, and then had to do some unplugging to find the actual culprit.
