11 meter is very quiet?

Turned on the radio yesterday evening and had skip slamming me from every direction for a couple hours on all 40 channels. Sideband was a pile up as well. Had a 30 minute span that was so congested it was just a wall of noise. Then things settled down and I made quite a few contacts all over the US. Hope it's rolling again tonight.
 
Checking out my new Galaxy 2547, I did a little tweak to the L8 can. Wow what a difference, now I have to try it on my 86v.

Nice DX today on 38LSB, I hear Arizona, San Fran Sisco California, Washington state, Utah, Idaho, Alberta, Saskatchewan, Ontario, Niagara Falls, Ireland, Witch Doctor in Trinidad, all at the same time.

Then I get Super Dave mixed with the Blah, Blah, Blah guy..........o_O

Been mostly listening to 385 today, didn't do much talking as I'm trying to get over this Cold of mine that I have seemed to have picked up, nevertheless the airwaves we're active today,as of now they have quieted down a bit,at least up here in Central Pennsylvania!!
How do you know its a cold as Omicron and colds have the same symptoms, as it would seem more likely it's Omicron?

BTW, in case anyone doesn't know that A$$-hole out there in Phoenix Arizona calling himself "Super Dave" and raising hell and calling people names,cussing, jamming, etc. is the one and only, Chris Sweeney, AKA Sheriff Bob, AKA Delta Tango 306, AKA AE5QJ.He and his mental midget minions have been out causing the same old problems as always.Sure would be nice if something happened to this sicko and he and his freaks just faded away.
 
I heard 402 here in N Ca but couldn't get back to him. 747 had things locked up while I was on.....

Ya 402 sounded real good down here! I didntt hear 747 but I could have missed his number. Felt good cause 402 said I was loud and clear. I was driving westbound so truck gets out pointing the other way.(y)

A dear uncle of mine used to say, "there is a time and place for everything and this calls for brute force."

I'm not a fan of vigilante justice but in the radio world we really only have each other.
