[AMRadio] Fwd: Re: [Boatanchors] 10M AM Frequencies

[rbethman]

This is the same nonsense that *some* keep proposing.

I've have found AM from 28.5 and up for over 20 years - when the band is 
open.

It is *KISS* principle to LISTEN before KEYING the microphone.

Time for growing up.  Think about operating procedures.

*IF* I cannot hear a signal, I can call CQ 10mtrs AM along with my 
call.  Works wonders.
