[CQ-Contest] SSB below 1.843

[Cedrick "Fred" Johnson - WT2P]

Ok-

So, what's going to happen when 20M gets too full in a SSB contest? Oh, I
think I'll just jump on down to 14.025 in SSB and call CQ because the SSB
portion of the band is 'full' on one of the biggest SSB contests of the
year!

It definitely is a fun hobby yes, I have no disagreements there.

It has nothing to do with the new era of no Morse and everything to do with
the band full all the way to the top during the largest world wide 160m ssb
contest in the world. There is nothing illegal about working ssb below 1840.
I love 160 and love cw, but I see nothing wrong with utilizing the band
where needed for this weekend. Check the band on Monday and see how much ssb
there is. If the bandwidth on ssb was 200hz or so we would not need to be
spread out quite so much. Things will be back to normal soon ! I was running
around 1945 most of the time and did work KH6MD on around 1810 this am. This
hobby sure is fun !!
