11 meter is very quiet?

Amazes me why someone would spend so much of their money just to come to LSB38 to constantly play police sirens.

It has more to do about them, than it does others. They have issues and need help. It seems they've never progressed past the schoolyard antics. Sometimes I see my Father in law do this type of crap on Facebook. Tries to stir up shit for his own enjoyment, and I don't cut him any slack! This kind of behavior is total BS.

The keyboard commandos on the internet and jerks on the radio have mental issues for sure. I don't have facebook, so I don't have to deal with that bs. I've got plenty of locals on the radio, and I squelch out the ass hats when they miss their meds and grab a mic. But I'll be checking throughout the day and maybe catch a forum member on the air if the conditions allow it.

Channel 37 Dx was crazy different today. 15 minutes of total silence followed by 15 minutes of skip so loud that I had to pull the headphones off. This way all day and into the night. During those in-between times had some great QSOs with stations in New York City, Oklahoma, Massachusetts, Blueberry Hill (?) Ontario, California, Wyoming, and British Colombia. Tried repeated calls for BC Coyote 23 West Coast of Canada, but no cigar. 15 solid contacts over a 3 hour time span. Could have scored a lot more but had the give my amp time to cool. Only trouble with a TX600 5-pill is its small heat sink. 4 fans - two on top (4") and one on each side (2") and still can't keep up with the heat. But, in my opinion, the best 5-pill amp out there.

I brought my stuff in from the shed to my room in the house because it was getting so hot out there during the day. I have a 50" monitor on the wall here for my PC, and every time I key the radio it fritzzes out the monitor. I thought it was done for yesterday but finally come back on. Not to mention all the background for my D104 to be picking up. I miss my shed. I think I better get a A/C going out there. Also had to add 100' of coax to get in here, swr is still good but doesn't seem to be getting out very well.

Haven't heard a peep out of anybody, even 6 AM is deader than a door nail. Of coarse I haven't heard anybody around here on AM in a long time !

Nothing but static all day here. It's not very often we get a whole day with nothing at all ! And I had so much time today..............
Tomorrow when I'm working and far from the radio conditions will probably be great :rolleyes:
