[Boatanchors] 10M AM Frequencies

[Warren Elly]

Folks, 
I've yet to have any issues running AM regularly on 20, 17 and 15 meters. 
Tim WA1HLR and I regularly sked on AM Sundays on 18.150. 
In nearly 3 years, we've yet to hear a disparaging word.
I have also worked, as Paul says, many DX stations as well, most on SSB,
and they just zero beat and call in. Never a complaint. 

So, what's the issue? We are not doing anything illegal running AM in the phone bands.
The voluntary "guidelines" for AM calling windows are outdated and on some bands terribly overcrowded ie. 3885.

I say fire up anywhere you wish, so long as you are not disrupting on-going communications. That's the
gold standard. Love thy Neighbor.
