11 meter is very quiet?

:cool:
Comes in and out.

Had a qso with 14 in San Francisco and we talked about the baseball game between the Dodgers and a Giants. We lost. LOL

1376 in E. Colorado came in strong. It was a road pile but I managed to get in! Some PNW stations too but they would get lost and vanish after responding to my call.

I talked with him (1376) yesterday. He is on a out of the box Stryker 955 with the stock mic. Sounds really good. Sounded better then a fine tuned Stryker:cool:
 
I heard somebody calling your name Eldorado 828 he said he was a WWDX member, but that was all I got. It was about 2:30 today.
I was on there and made a couple contacts right about that time. Texas is booming in there today so was hard breaking through the pileup. I'm just waiting for the day I have a conversation with one of you gents.
 
I see from your profile that you are in Nebraska. I made a rough contact yesterday with somebody north of Omaha around 6-7pm I don't remember the numbers though. I was around Odessa,TX at the time.

Wasn't 28 called "The Baby Bowl" at one time?

JD

Maybe at one point, but for years now it's been a nice, enjoyable channel for DXing. People would make contact and reply to contacts, not sit there keyed up talking endless and irrelevant crap. If it's the "Baby Bowl" I hope 90% of them choke to death on their Cheerios or stick a butter knife in an outlet while they're taking a bath.....
 
Made a few contacts on 38 LSB yesterday, with that said, WTF is going on with 28? It sounded like the super bowl had moved up there, loud, over modulated, distorted, radios and annoying jibber jabber with nonstop trash talking.
Seems like any channel is the super bowl now days when skip is rolling. And like you said, over modulated, poorly tuned splatter boxes with lots of power, and trash talk. It's almost like a new language, I call it cb rap. Guess those guys don't know or care that an amp is just a brick. Having 2000 watts won't make a radio sound better.

They sure think so!! LOL

All that power and it sounds like they have marbles in their mouths.
