Announcing the 2011 AM Transmitter Rally Results !!!

[Steve - K4HX]

That's a net, once a week. There's more AM activity than that every day of the week on the east coast.

Hey I'm not saying there's MORE AM activity on the West Coast Steve, only saying that there definitely is regular activity.  7.293 is a hotspot in the SouthWest during the day too.  But I mean look at the population density of the East Coast relative to the West Coast... of COURSE there's more activity!! 

In the mornings when I get home from work after the local Texas/Okla/Ark/Louisiana stations have signed off (due to propagation shortnening on 75 meters) I will often log into the Connecticut GlobalTuners receiver and listen to the NorthEastern AMers carrying on.... so many stations clustered in a tighter area that they can keep going later with great fidelity and low noise... pretty neat!

For sure. I hear (not well) a lot of 5-land AM activity, especially on 40 meters.
