Hi, Pete. Interesting post.
Maybe AM activity has fallen off some because of the conditions,
but out here the AMI Net still holds forth weekely on 3870, with as
many as 40-50 or more check-ins. Also, we have a local AM Early Birds
Net Sat AM's, with several regulars (including me).
In terms of any general fall-off, maybe it's the aging of the
group, of course we know that phenonenon.
My Valiant and Ranger are faithful, and I've been meaning to run my
CE 100V on AM, when I recently heard another on the air, it sounded
great. Angel Music.
There's been a number of guys, from various times, on early-mornings,
around 4am, CST on 3.885Mc, another group gets on 3.890Mc around 6 or 7,
and then
around 7am, there's activity on 3.880Mc - so, we get to go through the
changing of the band and go from talking to the Central US from Colorado
to East
Tennessee and Florida, to 'locals' (within the state of Texas)
Daily... there's someone on every day.
y'all come! ;-)
