Agreed, those bands have nice ops. 160M, the gentleman's band, also deserves it's name. CW and digital are ways to avoid many of the (censored) ops. I have avoided voice on 80M because of the general lack of respect for other ops and the FCC regs. Perhaps I need to expand my list of bands to

The ownership issue is what almost caused me to sell all my equipment. But then diversity from my K3S struck the phenomenal chord and I cannot believe how much fun it is. Plus, the 500 watts, helps as well. 72 & 73, Bill K9YEQ, FT’er for K2, KX1, KX3, KXPA100, KAT500, W2, etc.
