I was thinking with all that is being monitered and clamped down upon....
Do you own a CB radio with a tall antenna (and if possible and amp) ?
Does 4um have an official CB channel? (would it be channel 4?)
I've got an SSB mobile. I get a lot of skip from CA, CO, NY - even across the Pacific. Can't reply because I haven't invested the time and money into a real good antenna. Skip is unreliable of course because it depends on solar activity and the time of day.
Sideband will get you out to 40 miles with a decent stock whip or a tuned antenna - even without the illegal "four-pills" that some run. A linear amp will get you clear across the country, no sweat.
