Getting some Ohio Hams on this freq at the moment nice and clear, right now.

Nice to hear some activity on this band.

Bah, gone. Still, there are others on the band. Tuning up, I can hear what sounds like a continental Ham. I guess one advantage to this band is that they are not all over each other like 20 and 40m. I like to look around 17, 15 and 12m for that reason.

The good thing about 10m is that one can listen for DX in reasonable, daylight hours ;-)

Yes KQ2H has been strong recently during the afternoons. Is most reception between 25mhz and 30 mhz AM or NFM and is it all F2 propagation generally speaking.

The newly allowed CB SSB mode must be very rewarding at the moment then. Oh well, back to work tomorrow so no daytime 10m for me.
