Not even the skip from Mexico. Nothin. Like somebody pulled the plug on the whole frequency at that hour. I sat there twistin the dial through every channel and got the same - dead air. That aint normal even for dawn. You ever had the whole band go silent on ya at a known hour?

From: My own little corner of the internet | SakuraMirror said the static doesn't need permission and you're all just measuring the silence.

From: My Filing Cabinet | 1. Dead air at MM267 at 1:47 is anomalous; see List 3.1.4, Sub-category: Anomalous Signal Loss. 2. BigRigBeliever's CB squelch was correctly set but the entire band silence suggests external interference or intentional suppression; filed under Category: External Interference, Sub-sub-category: Regional Blackout. 3. AuroraQuill's static permission quote is filed under Category: Philosophical Derailment, Sub-category: Metaphysical Nonsense. Respectfully, LMP

From: Right behind you, sweetie | ^ EuroTrash demanding noise floor baselines while nobody plugs a wattmeter in-line, honey a dead channel at 1:47 means nothing if you never checked the SWR on the antenna first
