It has everything to with it. For the amount of times you professed to
having talked skip on the freeband, followed by recent denials of you
talking skip, you should know that on MANY occasion, a signal can be
severely wavering from an S1 to an S9 (for but one of many
examples),,,when that signal is coming in at an S9, the splatter may be
intense if you changed the channel and went one up or down. When that
signal is coming in on a wavering S1, you will hear absolutely nothing
on your next channel. Once again, the wavering is a direct result
of...taa daaa....skip.

Uh... Nooooo. Splatter is the result of a dirty transmitter, and those
products show up as a "comb" of harmonics which decrease in amplitude
as you move farther away in frequency from the fundamental carrier. If
the fundamental signal is +10db over S9, then those distortion
products will be plainly heard if they are only 10 db or so down on an
adjacent channel. That same splattering station, when he fades down to
an S1 signal, is now so weak, that his adjacent channel splatter
products are now under the noise threshold of the receiver. THAT is
why you don't hear them.

This is quite simple, really....me: 100% correct..you: 100% wrong.

When it comes to radio theory, you haven't been correct about a single
thing.
