Nice to see 10/11M open again. Worked several stations in Europe recently on 10 and heard lot's of activity on 11M into the UK as well as coast to coast. Same with 12 meters.

Jesus it was really popping off today. Thank goodness it's easier to get FM handhelds in the USA now that President made the Randy II. My local channel was clear but the splatter was crazy.

Does anyone know who Uncle 29 is? He just kept saying that over and over without talking to anyone and I was catching him from channel 21 to 28.

Lunacy, I wouldn't bother with those crazy people on 11 meters...

Who the heck are you going to talk to with nothing but a handheld radio?  It's range is probably 3 or 4 miles FM if you were standing on top of a mountain on a good day.
