I'm looking forward to 10 meters having some openings again so I can get on and work some AM and FM, as well as some good old SSB and start working some CW.
Hope to work lots of techs in the 28.3 to 28.5 section. And some rusty CW guys like me down in the bottom of the band where there's lots of room!
I sure wish there more folks on 6 and 10 meters for local nets (and distance as the bands open).
I could get into 10 meter AM with a modified CB and 6 meter AM with some simple rig (old military? homebrew?) Yeahhhhhhhhhh....I can do 10 and 6 with the Kenwood, Drake or Yaesu "appliance rigs" and that's fun, but it's even more fun with a more "personal" radio. I hear of 6 meter AM nets where the guys and gals get on with old Gonsets and Heathkits...that sounds like fun.
I know a lot of hams have stations that can do 6 and/or 10 meters, but don't get on unless the band is open.
Now that I'm in Rochester, the pool of groundwave hams on 10 and 6 is much smaller I'm sure....
Guess I'll have to see what 10-10 members are around here. And maybe actually get a 10-10 number!
