Conditions on 10m were fantastic this morning so I decided to see if I could find anyone up on the FM calling frequency. Rich W1HZN in Vermont answered my CQ.
Loved the video, i been a cb user for years driving truck. I am 65 retired truck driver and want to get into having a base or cb with a linear amp. I don't know which way to go as a new user that isn't rich, should i get a base station or 10 meter cb with a linear amplifier i guess needing some advice. I want to be able to get out cross country, you never know when the crap is going to hit the fan and we will need a good long distance rig!!
Good effect of Es ionosphere, You don't need Hi power amplifier, have a good(hopefully full sized) antenna and keep watch everyday. You will contact a station from thousands miles away by few Watt TRX.
29.600 Thanks. I didn’t know where the FM boys hung out on 10 meters. Now I got a starting point. De n5vwn
29.600 is the FM calling frequency. Above that are 10m FM repeaters. 73

I'm definitely going to check the calling frequency whenever I'm on when 10m is open. Lots of fun today! Tnx & 73!
