Default Getting shot down

Hi,
I went out today to get a few flights in while the weather was still good.
I met a few of my friends there who are kinda my flying buddies and then I checked out my
plane, it was alright and I fueled it up.

I took off and went out to fly a right pattern and "boom" my plane stopped responding to my TX,
did a few rolls, and then went WOT straight into the ground. I had gotten shot down.

The weird thing that I found out later was the guy who shot me down was on Channel 50 and
I am on Channel 42, is this common for this kind of interference to occur between channels
that are 8 channels apart? This question has been bugging me all afternoon since my plane went
down, any information or comments\opinions would be very appreciated.
