[Boatanchors] 10M AM Frequencies

[Tracy Walters]

Hi Paul,

I only see one problem with that. There are too many modified CB's out there
that will get into that range by clipping a diode. And I thin k the
outbanders would really screw up the frequency there. At 29Mhz it takes a
little more clipping a diode in the 25 buck CB radio. I know it will always
be a problem with them on 10 meters but I think AM mode that low would make
it even worse.
