[SixClub] AM signals during band openings

If you want to find each other on 6am or any mode-pick a freq and leave the radio squelched and decide to call at the top of the hour and/or just keep calling but keep a rig on that freq 24/7 or you too will fall victim to the 706 syndrome. I tried that freq but didn't hear anyone so I sat there and looked at the radio and tuned around 40, glug, glug, glug...
       It is destroying ham radio and we are making it happen; more on that later-
