Slim pickens here in Pgh. Channel 16 AM and 36 lsb occasionally. I live less than a half mile from Interstate 79, so obviously I get a ton of trucker traffic.

Ok this is one of the topics that lost a lot in the crash. In the Baltimore, MD area the AM channels are 6,11,15,22,26,28,31, and SSB is mainly 38LSB. There are a few that go out of band. My home channels are 23AM and 36LSB. The truckers that turn it on still use 19AM.

Unfortunately whatever channel I'm on is the local channel. It's just me out here on 11 meter.

Wish our locals liked 13. Thats lucky! and I could use some of these old school 23 channel rigs. I am always surprised that there are more folks using below 23 channels.

All the locals around here use to talk on 30. Now it seems that half has gone down to 26.885 and the others wait till the skip dies off and gets on 38lsb.
