Anyone use channel 16 SSB anymore?

Last Tuesday about 6am I called CQ for fun. Was in SC and chatted with an old guy in Nova Scotia on 16 lsb

I will have to monitor 16 lsb when the dx is rolling. Thanks for the thread.

Yes I try from time to time but don't here much but will try to get on when the propagation is rolling. Great idea!

Yep,back in the 23 channel days 16 was for ssb...and now its 36 to 40 for ssb...you have some lids that like to run am on them,use to really give them hell yrs ago,but dont run 11mtrs much any more.

A few of us still use 16 LSB around here sometimes just for fun. 38 LSB has basically turned into another version of Ch. 6 AM so it's hard to have a decent QSO there.

I always did like 27.145 (15 A). It was the first place I went when I got a slider installed in my old TRC-47. To this day I like to use it to tune up. Lately I've been hearing a lot of stations out of Florida on that one.

Back in the day some of us also used 18 LSB and later 36-40.

I've been trying, but not much in the way of contacts. I did hear someone yesterday but they were too faint to make out.
I could hear their whistling though, so they may just have been working on a radio. tried flipping to am and couldn't hear anything, so I think they were sidebanding.

Might of me whisteling,working on my newest Siltronix.And i been running it,just to mess with the chomo and meth head in my area,they run am there...
