CB skip

[Hd78glide]

Okay it's been decades since I had a cb. But I don't remember skip like this! Every day, almost any time a day I am hearing chatter from San Diego, Death Vallet CA, Deleware, Florida. I.m in Manitoba Canada

I wanna hear the days again when I hear Manitoba. I'm in eastern Ontario.

Yea there sure isn't much traffic here. I have only heard one trucker local. I remember the good old days back in the 70's.

MB/Ontario works best (on 27/28 MHz) around 4 to about 8 p.m. or so. That's when we're on the edge of the gray line. For more info, see here: Working the Gray Line

I routinely can hear stations in Ontario and eastern Canada during the gray line window.

As we get closer to winter, those times will be narrower and earlier.

SKIP every day, EUROPE was in all day on the 40 channels, and listening on the free band it was loaded also.

The skip conditions are very good today too, my Grundig satellit 750 is on my kitchen table and the CB bands are booming from the whip only.

Coming in great here on a Grundig 550PE, with a roll up antenna. Pretty much anything from 25-30mhz. Freebanders, CB, beacons, heck I was even listening to HAMS between 29-29.200 in AM mode. Pretty much all day and night. Actually kind of a nice change of pace , might even listen to that range more. Mike
