The biggest problem is on 75, there are people who've been on a frequency
for many years and if we're on there, they'll crank the power and talk right
over top of us. If we can find a hole, I say let's go for it, but that's
been my experience with 75 generally. I usually just get in with who's there
if I'm welcome.
