11 meter is very quiet?

It's been dead quiet for months here in the nw corner, nobody uses radio around my parts so not even any local talk. At all. I hate it,

Man I thought I had it bad. Maybe I'll take hearing locals as a good thing. Hopefully things will turn around here soon for you up there in the northwest

Its always dead air in Eastern Oklahoma, I don't hear any locals, most people I once talked to have passed away. I'm a mud duck on am and my ssb radio needs reworked.


I run south of Tulsa towards Paris, TX after dark and inevitably I have to go from Max RF Gain & Zero Squelch on AM-19 to some of each as the number of conversations overwhelms my ability to comprehend.

(I can listen to, and follow, [3] two-way jabberfests simultaneously).

This true tale I always use to help persuade others a

WEST MOUNTAIN RADIO CLEARSPEAKER

is worth the price. Cheap for what it does.

I close by saying one’s radio rig is better than believed. But it needs ham-quality digital signal filtration to prove itself.

I read about that speaker often, I'm curious as to how it could help me on ssb! It's got my attention
