11 meter is very quiet?

CV-19 is The Big Lie. Zip to worry about. I’ve been on the road since before it began with only intermittent stops at home. And, the world of truck driving ain’t a sanitary one, so any other is practically sterile.

CDC buries that but 9000 have died of this. Average age of 78. Same as the average age of death anyway. Who last year died of the flu. And will again next year. (The info is out there, but not for the stupid 80% who rely on TV).

The mask BS is the biggest irritant. As it isn’t in the least effective. It’s naught but a sign of willing submissiveness. Moral cowardice. As it’s an unhealthy choice — in truth — law protects one from wearing it. No explanation necessary.

Corporations (and other) that try to force compliance haven’t law or evidence on their side. Ordnance, mandate aren’t law.

You’ll note that the “employees” and others who try to force the issues are the fat-ass cowards they appear as they scurry away you start after them. Get angry and get loud. (Draw a bead).

As to refusing service, I recommend you find the “manager” and remind them that’s the American flag outside. That they WILL take cash . . and that they WILL respect those who guarantee law & order in this country. Another name can (will) be on that business in the morning.
Or it’s empty space. Or cinders.

At work I’ve been turned away twice at receivers.
Haven’t worn a mask and never will.

All other “rules” are out the window now. Can’t smoke. Can’t this or that. F-U. Buh-bye assholes.

Corporations aren’t people. Have no rights. Don’t even have a basis in law. Enjoy the last days of national chains. Their ruin is just ahead.
Pushing all their counterfeit poker chips to the table center. (Gladdens me immensely).

If you’ve the impression I walk around angry or unhappy, no, it’s the contrary. I’m a more pleasant man than maybe I’ve ever been. As it takes managing the asswipes on the highway or in the grocery aisle by mentally staying ahead of them (no feat for an American), pleasantries are disarming.

And only American men possess moral agency (women and ALL minorities are incapable given current laws and politics), place your bets accordingly. (Those who transcend the virtual prison will make themselves obvious).

Most of all: Look forward to having fun with these assholes.

We sure as hell need as many men as can be found to operate Radio in its every guise.

Shake the dust from your shoes
Go forth.

Yes, as re-uptake of CO2 plus other waste matter damages one’s brain.
Less than three minutes.

Dirty jobs are for peons.
“Safety” is a joke.

i say wear that mask n make sure everbody gets sick.germs n diseases love warm damp breeding areas such as breathing in masks. And another point or 2,cheep masks dont seal around nose bridges,breathe hard with fingers just above mask on nose bridge. Humm air going up,its full of germs spewing on us. Now breathe out of your nose,air is directed down not up in air above us.
That party ridin a donkey sure created a disaster. I never shut down for this china bs n been out truckin not sick yet,im not cowering down to bs. If you gonna get it nothing prevents it . Many die from flu,common cold,pneumonia yearly
 
That is really funny because both sides have the same argument. "The other side is in educated on the facts of covid". The facts are what we can't agree on, not the virus.
well toss your nickles worth in,least here we can say our opinion even if some get theur cages rattled. I just observe n use common sense going off what we heard in school in a few classes we took.

Nobody cares what I think, and people tend to get upset if I don't side with the left or right. When society quits seeing issues as right and wrong, and it becomes us vs them, we have already lost.

When was the last time 12m-10m was listed as anything other than poor?

Maybe 5 years ago:whistle::LOL: Most likely be couple more before that really changes.

Though it should be noted, when I worked the CQ WW HF SSB last year...same report.
However late that Saturday afternoon, we did manage to work several S. America, Central America plus some Caribbean Stations on 10 meters(from Central Ohio) in what was a Brief,
Trans-equatorial opening.
The 3 antennas we had were at (50) (70) and 100 ft. they were either 5 or 6 element wide-space Yagi's, plus running close to a KW to antennas.
That's the only reason we got some of those multipliers in the log.
 
Just made some good contacts on 38 LSB....Everyone I keyed to came back, most said I was 20 over S9 with clear audio. 170 Maryland, 1303 Va, (can't remember) Ky, Unit 76 WV, 105 Fl.....It'd rolling good.
just white noise s2 light squelch kills it,not a soul speaks in my area
