11 meter is very quiet?

YardDog · May 29, 2021

Been getting hammered with skip on AM since last night. Made a few contacts on SSB but it's overwhelming on AM. I keep getting 10 people keying up at the same time calling out to me and my little 50w radio when I try to make a contact lol. I'll try again in a bit if it settles down a little.

Lots of DX happening here today....horizontal dipole doing it best.

Heard you for a second on 28 AM, too many folks keying up same time, made a few QSO's in your neck of the woods on 38LSB

Well shucks hate I missed you. Would have been nice to talk to you again

Ended up working stations in Oklahoma, Missouri, Mississippi, Indiana, Kansas, Michigan, Arkansas, Texas, Kentucky, Alabama, Louisiana, California then big electrical storm happened. Unplugged and disconnected...for now

Got a lot of Dx coming from South America and the Caribbean this evening. Also hearing Canada and here in the states. Hope to hear some Europe in the morning.

The roar settled down enough for me to make contact with a few tonight.
West Virginia, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin sounded great, didn't last long though. I shut down when the army of roger beeps and cranked up echoes took over again. All good though, everyone runs their radio how they want and I'm ok with that.

Last night made a few contacts lsb with excellent conditions. During the day today signals were a little weaker ssb but D-rail and motor mouth maul were sounding excellent on Am. Interesting how mother nature can keep us in suspense.

I know these guys get a lot of hate, but The Motor mouth and D-rail stations sure sounded top shelf today

MMM isn’t an ass. Far too many others ARE. (Doing what comes naturally).

Excellent skip conditions yesterday. Looks like today is going to be a repeat. Happy Memorial Day weekend and good dx.

Dx back in today made first contact on 11 meters into Europe since last year and into the Canary Islands. Looks like its picking up.

Quiet so far here in SoCal. Maybe peeps went to the beaches???

ForestRunner98 · May 30, 2021

Small QSO with a local about 20 miles away. He too says they are all listening but no skip whatsoever.

Dead quiet here in the nw corner. Not even any locals. Saw a solar storm/heavy radio and gps black out post from tamitha skov on YouTube. That would explain the dead silence, up north anyway

Spoke with Maryland, New York, Oklahoma, and Florida this morning. Then I spoke with Chicago all afternoon on Ch 20 AM. Skip was rolling all day long from 6am to 7pm in Alabama.
