    11 meter is very quiet?

    While broke down waiting on a tire man I heard 109 in South Carolina getting back to 828 in Amarillo. I made a quick contact with 109 as well. That was on 39 LSB. I haven't played too much radio this week. I am in a backup truck with my backup radio and my swrs are a little too high. I have...

    Better than average SSB radio

    I have heard quite a few guys on the quad 6 as they call it. They sound good and have enough muscle to get out on sideband. No need, really, for an amp if you have a good antenna. The 980 is an OK choice, but you will need a rm 203 behind it to get the contacts.

    Good looking dog. 16 years is really good. I have always enjoyed this song. Remember all the good times you had with your best friend.

    Sorry to hear about the loss of your dog. I haven't had a pet in years, but I look forward to getting off the road soon...so hopefully I can get a couple of dogs to keep me company. I had 2 Australian Shepherds at separate times, I really enjoyed those dogs.

    I had some decent midwest conditions this morning down here in south Texas. I made zero contacts up north. My only contact was a good one out to Arizona. I shutdown early today after 3 busy days of running loads. Nothing in my receiver right now an hour south of Houston.

    I had about an hour and a half of Rollin yesterday. Same ole same ole. NIST calibration, Faraday cage, windowlickers, blah blah freaking blah. I heard a couple of guys going through Lordsburg giving it right back at him. Of course he talked about how bad they sound and how they were bleeding...
