Darn !

On my way in to work, there was sooooo much skip, I thought my radio was broken. In every channel there is an incredible amount of noise + chatter.

#19 is almost not usable with so much noise. You'd have to be pretty local to be heard at all on any channel. (or have lots of watts to be able to step over people)

BTW, I thought my radio was broken last night too. There was a storm passing by and I didn't know it. Every 10 sec, I hear this "ZAAAAAAP". Turns out that it was thunder miles and miles away. Caught up with me few hours later though.

I think todays skip is because of last night's storm...

Hope every one is well.
