Which band are you on? (sopuli.xyz)

Where I'm from, 2m band seems to be popular due to the small antenna requirement. The fact we're in densely populated area probably also play a role.

There should be the 70cm band as well, but I haven't seen any sign of life around here.

That's a ham indeed...

What do you usually find on that weekly net?

Maybe half a dozen people, but usually nobody has much to say. My dad is in a larger city these days and he says about the same.

I think all the yappers are on 80, I sold my long range equipment years ago because I couldn't listen to the stupid. I still have a 10m rig that I'll fire up if the skip is active.
