GM Richard,

Now you're really barking up the wrong tree.

I've worked 5-band and 3.5 MHz DXCC, worked on all bands from 3.5MHz to
10GHz, on CW, AM and SSB, built my own gear, among them the first SSB
transmitter in OH, and won a lot of contests on HF, VHF, UHF and SHF.

FM is for me only for local contacts, and in the beginning of time, a
way to avoid RFI to the neighbours when working AM on the HF-bands.

I admit that I'm maybe not an average ham, but that is because of my
technical education.


Have a nice day,

Holger
