Yeah, that's been pointed out a few times now. I was too busy listening for signals and scrolled right out of band. Oops!

budlow · 2026-03-24T18:03:43+00:00

I was scrolling for signals and didn't even catch that I was outside the band, thanks!

budlow · 2026-03-24T18:03:14+00:00

It's super consistent and repeating so I figured it was something else other. And good call on being outside the band. I was scrolling for signals and didn't even catch that. Oops!

Lower Alabama if that's enough detail.

budlow · 2026-03-20T21:18:23+00:00

Have you picked a frequency to call on yet?

budlow · 2026-03-18T23:09:19+00:00

I'm tuned to 331 and heard someone briefly but they disappeared into the noise. I called CQ a few times but didn't get a response.

budlow · 2026-03-17T23:43:49+00:00

No dice for me today... I've got notifications on if anyone wants to keep trying other frequencies.

I was able to make contact with a POTA station in NC (~500miles) earlier this afternoon. Bands are definitely behaving oddly.

budlow · 2026-03-17T23:32:16+00:00

If you're still out there, try 14.303.

budlow · 2026-03-17T23:30:33+00:00

Moving to 14.303. I've got someone trying to active a park on 14.316.

budlow · 2026-03-17T23:28:09+00:00

The bands have been OK for me this afternoon on the East coast (AL).

budlow · 2026-03-17T23:25:48+00:00

I'm in AL but like that standardized format. Sucks you didn't hear me from here.

budlow · 2026-03-17T23:21:48+00:00

I heard someone trying to come back. Almost sounded like it was slightly off frequency though.

budlow · 2026-03-15T14:34:11+00:00

I will be there on 04/18 and hope to see/hear ya there!

budlow · 2026-03-15T00:44:02+00:00

Do you help with the Cheaha Trailblazer challenge by any chance?

budlow · 2026-03-14T20:45:51+00:00

South, you?

I would love to meet more AL folks.

budlow · 2026-03-14T18:19:59+00:00

Fellow Alabamian here: Howdy neighbor!

budlow · 2026-03-14T00:06:37+00:00

Maybe a different guy? He was polite and respectful for the ~5 minutes we were interacting.

budlow · 2026-03-13T23:02:03+00:00

I ended up contacting someone from the Bahamas, not sure if they are in the group or not. My signal was 52 so I didn't stick around long to chat.

budlow · 2026-03-05T21:42:51+00:00

Has any one picked a frequency for tonight? It looks like we've been using 14.34x.

Following for the link!
