11 meter is very quiet?

AMEN & AMEN.I hear lots of bragging about their Awesome setup but Rarely hear them actually have a conversation.Channel 6 is by far the worst.Best channel for hearing an actual conversation around here is channel 28 AM so I stay there or on 38 LSB.

So there I was listening to Soul Man on Ch. 6 AM talking (having a one-way conversation) on and off for about five minutes. I took a chance and called for him and I was shocked that he replied and acknowledged my call name.

But in all seriousness...that rig of yours is putting out a signal, Recon.
Thanks, but all the credit goes to the forum member who prepared it for me. I have never met this person and I am "many" states away from him.
I am following his recommendations on where to "set and leave" the settings and several people have told me that the radio sounds nice and clean on AM and Sideband.

That is what my Mother had back in the 70's was the SSK, it was reported to be loud. Must have been great mics
