Title: AM "late-nite" scope 071616 - mp3 audio attached
Post by: ve6cq on July 17, 2016, 01:45:46 AM
I've attached a short montage of some of the stations heard tonight on 14.325.
If you can stay up - we're there anytime after about 9:30 central.
Good reliable signals, new voices, and no QRM.

I got on last night around 10pm CST. Made multiple contacts into W9 call area from Texas. Signals varied, but around S5 to S7, mostly Q5. I was on 14330.

Hi Steve, That was me on the HT-32B. Worked Jim WD5JKO earlier in the night on 14.320, then around 11 or 11:30 eastern worked KK6DA in Los Angeles with a good signal from a K3S.

I moved to 14320 last night because the guy on 14330 (AM, tall ship) was monopolizing that frequency, and when people tried to break in, he gave a long dissertation about Ham radio protocol, and how he was writing down call signs of people who were rude, and that he'd never turn it over to them. Heck, this was the Monday night AM gathering place and time. The guy was also 20 Khz wide with waves of audio splattering over Chris on 14320. I had a good 6 Khz filter too, so my receiver was not overly broad.

I soon shut things off and felt pretty disgusted.
