[Boatanchors] A Cure for "The Silence of the Bands"

[K5MYJ]

A few years  ago I bought a GOOD 11M SSB transceiver to convert to 10M.

I  decided to try it on 11M before modifying it.

There was nothing there 11M was completely quiet here in the Seattle area.

The truckers had moved to the 2M FM repeaters!
