I managed to have quite a good time on 7243 on Saturday.
Although on Sunday I was calling away on 7230.3 when two strong
carriers came on the frequency. I ignored them. After about 5 minutes
of tuning, the tuning stopped and two guys started talking on 7230 --
just 300 Hz below me!
I moved down and told them very politely that the frequency was in use.
They stood by for a while, but I eventually had to leave the frequency,
since I wasn't getting any takers.
I didn't catch any calls. Sounded like a couple of guys using amps to
talk across town.
