I suspect there's just not much interest in VHF AM. At least the HF AMers
have a world to find contacts in. Contacts on VHF are pretty much local,
and the probablility of finding a fellow AMer on VHF locally are
vanishingly
small.

I can certainly see your point and I agree completely - insofar as it
applies to general applications. My interest is in the aviation bands where
AM is very much alive and well (and required). There's probably about
zip-nada-squat of interest happening in amateur VHF-AM for the reasons
you mention. But there was certainly some interesting traffic on the
airband frequencies here in Washington the other day when that nitwit in
the Cessna came breezing in....!!! 8-)
