Sorry I missed all the fun - was out riding fast sportbikes and generally raising Cain this weekend
A great big wave-out to visitors from St. Else-Wheres who feel that no one should DARE operate on "their" private channels.
Hey boys - the 11M gang misses you. Now go on back there, say "Hi" to Rubber Duck and Ratchet Jaw...and try to be big fish in a little pond, m'kay?

Just getting caught up with the (now closed) thread in question... I see the real reasons why it was closed:
(1) N0SYA mentioned The Forbidden Frequency, 14.275 MHz
(2) M6IBM decided to mock... this very thread, thus providing a link The Scary And Unmentionable Web Site of Vermin, as decreed by She Whose Gender Must Not Be Mocked
Do any of these turkeys actually operate? I know they say the do, but do they?

They just blame it on the "contesters" who operate, apparently, every weekend. Which is the only time any ham can ever get on the air. Can't be their stations, because they have a G5RV 10 ft. off the ground, fed with RG-59 with a 1000 ft run, complete with air-balun at the feed point and entry point, using Radio Shack PL-259's...
I fucking can't stand those anti-contest threads. Sure, I'm not a contester. And if I can't get in edgewise because of my piss-poor antenna system that makes the cut during normal times, I just switch what I'm doing. Lot's more to ham radio than HF. Hell, there's even WARC bands, so I guess these guys don't have rigs that can TX on WARC bands.
I offered to help one of them add the WARC bands to his equipment; even ponied up the required crystals for free. His excuse for not doing so? "Well, that would be project #239..."
Seems to have enough time to bitch about contesting but no time to investigate alternatives.
