Reclaim LSB 16

[FlatlandBusa]

Called again and nothing.

Just called a few times again myself with everything turned on, and nothing.

 

[Brother DXer]

I'm going to be on at 5:00 PM CST and will try...

I had a few contacts earlier today. WDX-163 Michigan, WDX-933 PA, WDX-303, South Carolina, 291 Ohio and a few others I can’t remember. But you have to keep in mind, these were all within a 25 minute window. Nothing before and nothing since.
Thanks for the qso, fellas!

Went down to the truck this afternoon to drop some supplies off for the upcoming week. Turned the radio on and didn't get anywhere on SSB. However I was able to make a contact with 101 mobile in Florida on 26.805 FM! Turns out he is a fellow Ohio resident on vacation! Not bad for 50 watts mobile!

I tried a bunch, too. Got nuttin.

Boy, it's interesting that some say cb is dead. I tried yesterday on lsb16 with no luck but on 38 of 40 channels I heard people talking. Lots of skip, some locals. Now, I understand that conditions at that moment in time were just right, but thats a good amount of people enjoying our hobby across North Amer. So to those that say 11 meters is dead I say bully.

...So to those that say 11 meters is dead I say bully.

It isn't dead, it just smells that way.

Well. Someone is actually standing by there. Called from NW Arkansas in the mobile and made a good contact with 852 out of Las Vegas, NV.

PS. @Hairball What do you do about those hairballs. I suggest some detangler and a twice per week comb out. Works on my pups.

Don't know if you contacted others, but it was good to talk to you Homer. You were just slightly above the noise level but sounded good on the quad 6...WDX3820.

 

[FlatlandBusa]

I'll have my mobile out around 5:30pm CST if anyone wants to try. I'll be running with the big box on so it might take a little power to get back to me if I'm heard.

 

[FlatlandBusa]

Earlier tonight I made QSO's with: 948, 369, 969, 1666, & 123 on 16lsb. I was running everything on and may have heard a few stations down in the noise, but couldn't make them out.

 

[Hairball]

Homer,
I've found 5w30 and cat tranquilizers keep the Hairballs to a minimum. Sometimes when we break out the catnip a shot of dairy creamer does the trick.
