That is always a good thing when we all get a chance to play radio.
Been working Europe ,Australia, Asiatic Russia just to name a few here.
Fixing to fire up the radio and have a scan around the bands.....

29 mhz is in the FM portion of the ten meter band and general class or higher for class requirements.
If you are hearing "bleedover" from the CB band chances are that guy is running a splatter box radio and kicker ...I can assure you if that guy is ever located he will be in more hot water than he will ever know what to do with...the FCC frowns on interfering with the ham bands from trashy CB operators

Conditions stayed open late into the night for both Fri/Sat on 20m.
I ended forcing myself to turn off at around 1am Sun, still many Asiatic Russian stations calling "CQ Contest"!
Got deep into Asiatic Russia with almost every contact after 10pm, also into Kazakhstan multiple times with signals around 5/5.
Around 1am started to hear Europe coming back in, went to bed with a lot of buzzing in my head.**Jump_im**
