Bassmaster out of south Florida

[Atlasta]

Has anyone ever heard this station? I've heard it before but it's been a while. On Wednesday I was playing around with a Pearce-Simpson Bengal that has recently come into my possession and tuning around the dial I landed on channel 11.

Those of you that have heard him know of what I speak. Those that have not- well, there just aren't enough adjectives to properly describe the eargasam that is this station. Saying the audio is broadcast quality doesn't do it justice. This is singularly THE VERY BEST audio I have ever heard on ANY band, anywhere in over 40 years of being a radio hobbyist. Yes, it's even better than Prime's .

From the professionally-produced jingles to the soundtrack running in the background to the perfect audio level and tone, all expertly mixed- it's just something that has to be heard to be described.

I rarely rave about another stations signal and audio particularly when it's coming from the bowl (6) or the baby bowl (11) but hearing him again was just amazing.

Imagine my surprise when I keyed that Bengal up (barefoot!) and he came right back to me with many thanks.

Where in South Florida is he supposed to be? I'm in South Florida and I have never heard him.

I've talked to him a few times. He has a very good sounding station. He was running wide band on CB when it was still a mystery to most people.

He didn't say exactly where in S. Florida. Would love to see the station sometime though!

Last time I talked to him I believe he said he was running a 2995 with pro tools

I've talked to Bassmaster often, and I agree that his audio is top notch. I have him in my log books as living in Fort Lauderdale.

When i first heard him 2-3 yrs ago he was fun to listen to....but last few times he was coming into the lakes....he was getting into agitating and arguing with other operators....name calling....it was like a different person with the same voice......have not heard him in a while....Ive talked to him.....and your right...he was doing wide band phat audio way before MMM showed up in DX land.

MMM sounds like he has his head in a Toilet.I hope my audio Never sounds anything like his.Reverb is Not ever needed in transmitted audio.It was designed for the studio & recording settings & not over the air audio & I think that's a great place for it to stay.I have never spoken with MMM on any band but I understand that his Amateur Radio Station does not have the reverb as it should not on any band.
