Florida is a hard state to hit from here, like

New York City.

Ahh,,your New York is my Georgia..I hit it last week for the first time
in almost two years.

Upstate works. I hear south starting about the

Carolinas.

And I hear north, beginning with SC, all the way up the coast.,,with the
exception of MD (usually).

In response to your endeavors involving knocking the AMers from Florida
off the frequency with 200 whiskey SSB on the sideband channels, try
channel 40..

40 is used here by a group that's been on CB

longer then me, and are hams as well. I keep

hearing them on the bands. I may have to

make contact soon...

Channel 40 AM has been in use as long as I can remember in this
area...appears it's that way in many areas of the country. Somehow, I
don't think that's going to change.
I can think of a few hammies right off the bat in this area who are
die-hard AMers on cb, but there are way more freebanders in the area.

=A0=A0Next time the skip is running from your area, email me,,we may be
able to communicate.,...........perhaps legally.

Since the skip noise has been overwhelming

lately, 90% of our club is hanging on 2 meter

simplex. About every half hour, someone

checks 11 meters and reports it's still trashed,

so we stay on 2.

Haha..I know some locals who share your view,,but to others, that
overwhelming skip noise is music to our ears.

We would like to be able to

use 11 so we don't have to be so careful as to

what we say. It will be on tonight. Net is 2030

local time.

Rain check.
