Idiot farting noises on 80M

[357]

I'm just listening to a ragchew on
80M and every night I hear this goof making fart noises.
3.840 and tonight the sames guys on 3.745 (+/- 1-2KC)

Seriously..wtf

It's that same guy from 38lsb.

No surprise here, 75 meters at night is known as the "trash band". It definitely is on 3.840 and 3.843.

In February 2017 I will have been licensed and active for 30 years. For many years I participated in groups and nets on 80 meters and even then occasionally and I mean very occasionally you would hear someone use profanity. Don't let anyone tell you it's been like this forever because it has not. It wasn't the ongoing nonstop BS for hours on end that's going on now all over the 80m band. The worst of 11 meters can't compete with the asshat hams on 80. That band is useless to me so, I spend most of my listening time on 40 meters, chasing DX on 20 and rag chewing on 17 when it's open.

That type of behavior made me turn off my base radios back in the 80's and only use cb radios while on the road and then only when traffic is getting messed up. Fortunately I don't drive and use ham radios while in motion. In the mobile I do the hill topping routine and operate from there.

I don't even bother with 80 and rarely get on 75 or 40.

Ahh you have been tracking me...

Yep, I'm busted!

40m isn't bad, just ignore 7.200

 

[RatsoW8]

Maybe that's just some of the sewage spilling over from 80?

Funny you said that... I just had a conversation yesterday with a good friend of mine, and he asked me if I had heard all the mess going on on 7.200!

He listens to fart noises every night. I think he's right where he wants to be. Why else listen every night?

Must be a different "Geratol Net",(note the spelling)............ The net I hang out on is in the Amateur Extra part of 75 meters

Geritol? Geratol? Are you quoting the spelling direct from the bottle in your medicine cabinet? Ha ha!

I'm only old enough to remember the commercials. I'm not sure if this product is even made anymore.
