[Elecraft] abject buffoonery

[Wayne Burdick]

The occasional rebroadcasted music, malicious jamming, whistles, jeers, political "discourse," religious extremism, blush-worthy 60-over-9 filth, and full-contact audio body slams found on 75 meters offer a bottomless pit of entertaining signals for testing new receiver designs. Given this, plus the Fifty Shades of QRN found nowhere else, as an engineer I'd really miss it. 

To be fair, there's also a large contingent of knowledgable operators to be found on this band, with expertise in SSB and AM signal quality, antennas, and amplifiers. No shortage of opinions when you need them.
