Yup, I believe So..... Really isn't Rocket Science to be a good Radio op on 11 meters or any band,just be professional and kind, and have fun & don't be a bonehead like sky what's his name,and people wonder why we can't get this generation interested in either CB or Ham radio,I believe because of Crap like that going on, okay I'm done with my rant,jmo....... hope you all had a good and Blessed Sunday today with your Families!!

I agree with you! Everytime I tried to call out CQ he would walk all over me
Yep or just chimes in singing "rollin rollin rollin" then continues on as if he were in the middle of a rant.
DX pollution
Short skip is cool, it gets you several hundred miles out in what most of the time is a hard to work area.
Nice.

That is a good indicator of sporadic E propagation. Good time to fire up the 6m or even 2m rig if you have a ticket.
i like short skip.made some fine contacs yesterday and were decent kinda people. strangely in my area about 6-6
:30 skip simply grew quiet. good friend of mine 35 miles away n i discussed that.
dang it now your making me think about erecting my 2 meter loop antenna. prolly missed some good stuff on 2 meters ssb
Many people talk trash on running power in a mobile, but I seem to be doing much better with it. I'm guessing that the receive on the icom helps me out, but 2 cq's on 38 resulted in as many contacts on a pretty dead band. 1229 Texas and 171 utah.
You just squeeze your trigger and let me do the operating lol

I had about an hour and a half of Rollin yesterday. Same ole same ole. NIST calibration, Faraday cage, windowlickers, blah blah freaking blah.
I heard a couple of guys going through Lordsburg giving it right back at him.
Of course he talked about how bad they sound and how they were bleeding over other channels.
What got me was he would say to be nice to each other. Then talk about some cb people having mental problems. Haha that was the pot calling the kettle black.
I had a good laugh though, as he was blabbering away the cb radio shop in Chandler,AZ covered him up as he let somebody know where he was located. The guy in Chandler had louder better sounding audio to top it off.
Using my new KL503 made some good contacts with 396 Buffalo NY and 121 Ontario Canada. Both said I was coming in great!! Woot!!!
Had some great skip this morning as well around San Antonio. I made contacts to New Hampshire. Massachusetts, Connecticut a few minutes later I made contact to Washington state. All is quite now though.
Yes it was going pretty good this morning! That’s quite a few contacts!!
Got in on the action late though. Yes sir…all quiet now.
well at 2.34 pm here in central FL it's so quiet that i had to go outside to make sure my coax was connected
