I 2nd that suggestion, either USB or LSB would be the best way to go if are to bring back the forum channel,etc.
Excellent idea!! It will also let smaller stations have a better chance to make contact.

Makes perfect sense, maybe also we could have like a Net Check in on the forum channel also,make new friends in the hobby and exchange ideas concerning the hobby of SSB CB radio,etc just something to think about and explore down the road!!
So we need to vote on a channel and usb or lsb and then make another official post for everyone to see under new posts.
I feel like most serious dx guys have a radio capable of going above 40 which is a cleaner area to make contacts.
I would love to chat with a few more of you guys using our radios instead of the interweb!

If we are going to do above ch40, then we might as well do 470 instead of 475? Might be less traffic? Or maybe when someone finds an empty frequency, they can post here where they are at. We just need a good system to find each other.
This is a great idea! I just want to add my two cents... I do think it would be good to stay inside the standard 40 channels to give people with a regular CB a chance to get in on the action. But what about using USB instead of LSB? I almost never hear anyone on USB on 11m. That being said, I, like most of the rest of you, dont even own a radio that can't freeband so it could be anywhere on 11m.
Why dont we try USB On a channel everyone can get to!!
I listened on the 475LSB Sunday. Didn't hear much English being spoken, seemed like a weak signal day as well.

I was listening to DX the other day and switched to USB on 38 and other channels around it. It seems that there is some bleed over from LSB to USB on the same channel. Although I did hear some DX on USB with this bleed over, maybe it's not a problem.
Next time I am on the radio with conditions, I will find a channel that is quiet for me and will post it up here.
