I don’t enjoy 20m for the reasons stated. kayn1n32008
I agree- Domestically (US) I seldom venture onto 20.
One of my more lasting, memorable excursions went something like this.......... (it was to met a friend on a pre-arranged 20 meter frequency- a 'sked'.....)
Me - "Is this frequency in use ?"
-------Pause to listen
Me- "Is the frequency in use ?"
------- Another, longer pause.......... Okay.......
Me - "K*#** this is K*#**.... Are you on frequency B---- ?? "
"GET OFF THE FREQUENCY !! YOU *STINK'IN B*TCH !! * "
"This frequency is for the (blank) traffic net only !!"
__________________________________________________________________________________________________
A few incidence like that Cured me (double !!'s) of 20.........
Those things never happen to me on other bands.
(but I also avoid anything above 3750 KHz's on 75)
