And a long way to go. At the bottom of the last cycle, '96 & '97, the sigs
were "wall to wall" up to and slightly above 1900. This contest I heard
lone signals spaced .5 kHz or more from 1850 up to 1875. Nothing above
there, even during prime time. That was the observation in SW New Mexico
near the Mexican border. May have been more crowded in the "metro" areas.
I echo all the other comments Josh made.
