 More often than not, I find 122.8-- 123.0 etc. etc. jammed up and everybody
from 50 to 100 miles away transmitting
 on top of one another and the squeal is deafening.
 Some are in C-150s and a down at 800 feet AGL  and can't hear the other
airport traffic 50 miles down the road.
 To add to this bedlam --this demand for everyone to identify themselves and
their intentions is absolutely ridiculous.
 
 IMHO
