Made a quick contact with Georgia 1, then about an hour later talked with the infamous WingNut in Florida from around the Ft.Worth,Tx area with my big 10 watt Uniden 980. I heard a few others out there including the a-holes from around the Phoenix area. Hopefully the activity will pick back up today. I got to work on getting a little heat wired in this truck so I can make more contacts.
those 980's seem to have a big heart,mine does so far

So I have the week off here in Seattle and just wanted to report!

I normally do not have access to my radio when working but today, kicking back and turned on auto squelch and scan.

Channels 4, 8, 10, 12 and 16 (AM) are very active just in the first five minutes.

Granted, I'm just above interstate 405 so that will account for a number of mobiles.
