Unfortunately, there seems to be a WAS net seems to meet on 7.188 MHz LSB
in the mornings anyway. This totally tears up 7.190 when they are on.Just
thought I'd pass along my observations... they have been meeting there
for years too.de KX5JT

Try 7195 as an alternative.
It seems these frequencies will probably be regional.

At this time (11:41 AM CST 1741 Z) 7188 appears to be occupied by County
Hunters. Also, loud SSB heard on 7190 and several SSB on 7192. 7190 may be

Hey Fellow AM Enthusiasts,
I hate to be a wet blanket here but there is a group of regulars, some
of us which go hither and yon in our work, and we entertaining ourselves
on 7195 LSB. For those of us on the road is breaks the monotony and
keeps us from falling asleep. The guys are going
Check it in the mid morning (6AM to 8AM) and early evening (4PM to 7PM).
This morning I was listening to the West Coast AM group on 3885. They came
on between 6AM and about 6:30AM and vacated shortly after 8AM. Then SSB
activity started on 3885.
So there may be a time we can use 7190 or 7195.
Just remember that NO ONE OWNS a frequency. If it is open it is available to
the first group that takes it!

Stevan,
We in the Mid-Atlantic may or may not even hear you.
If we happen to fire up a KW AM rig, we sincerely apologize.
However, also remember that it is the AM window, and sometimes we
regularly light up early in the day.
We DO try to be friendly. Y'all may have to tune the notch filter
Thanks Bob!

Hi Folks,
I just got done using my slack, Turkey Day Time, to write up my experience
over the last 18 mo. in setting up a 43'
vertical for HF.
The write up is mostly complete, except for one section, so I thought I'd
share it with the group.
Hope it can help some, or is interesting,
My understanding of SSB reception (after 40 years of hamdom) is that SSB ops
are not
bothered too much by AM signals unless we splatter or unless they plop down
where they
can hear our carrier. Notch filters and DSP work wonders in that instance.
We, with our
comparatively wide receivers
Stevan,
You have to take us with tongue planted firmly in cheek!
I'm an old retired Sr. NCO. I am NOT politically correct.
I personally would NOT be upset OR surprised to find SSB on that portion
of the band.
W1PE Bob, from what I can tell has the SAME style of humor that *I*
have.

No. The R-388 is the military version of a 51J-3. The R-388A is the military
version of a
51J-4.
The R-390 series came much later.

There was always a group on around 7290 early weekends, but they generally
signed about 9 am, so I always just waited, since I knew they would get off.
The best conditions used to be about 10am to 12 noon, or whenever the
broadcast started up.
That always fit my weekends nicely, I usually had
I think not!
I often listen on both, and ssb can get right up to an AM signal and not even
know it, causing all sorts of racket on the AM signal.
I was also surprised at some of the modern gizmo's on new rigs, like auto notch.
My pro3 has this, and it will eliminate a carrier, even when it moves
Check me if I am wrong, but I believe the Pro 3 will auto notch up to 3
heterodynes. I have a Pro and it will do that. The best way to deal with
interference is just ignore it or turn up the power (not audio) until your
sibilance gives them problems.
Then nice thing about most SSB signals
I had the impression the R-390 was essentially a R-388 with a digital
readout.

Oh no. It's more sophisticated and the physical architecture is more
complex. It's modular and has certain technical features the R-388
doesn't have.

It is a false impression. The r-390 and the R-390A were VERY purpose
built for radio intercepts AND diversity reception.
The R-390A was a cost reduction version of the R-390.
The entire R-39() series is built in modules, that are interchangeable
without regard to chassis S/N. You
