Man, I'm not sure I can pick ONE favorite band. Can I pick two? 40 meters is my favorite for late night/very early morning contacts. 40 also seems to have more ragchewers than the other bands

During daylight hours, it's 17 meters. GREAT DX band. So that's my favorite daytime band.

2 meters is.....just OK for me. I'll use it when I'm out and about in the car, but the only time I have it on at home is when severe weather is in the area.

My favorite is 17meters. Low noise level and lots of international QSO's. 20 17, and 40 are great for PSK QRP.

Yep! It took me about six months when I first got my license back in the mid-90's to start hating the mindless yammering on 2m and move to 70cm. It was later when I got into APRS that 2m became useful to me and I kept voice on 70cm. No desense issues either

60 meters. 5 MHz.

60 meters. 5 MHz.
But it wasn't on the poll, so I didn't vote.

Well, I'm a new user with only a HT with 2 meters and 70 cm and 2 meters is quite active in my area. So there it is. 2 meters.

By the way, where is the poll?

Congrats on your new license. 2 meters is where I mostly play. I am a general and have an HF radio, but been enjoying local 2 meter talk lately.

2m SSB, and 2m Meteor Scatter.

I am not heard much on HF or local repeaters anymore.

15 and 40, mostly.

I'll always have a soft spot for six, as I made my first DX QSOs on 50.110. One of these days I'll finish VUCC or join SMIRK
