Umpteen thousand years ago, when rules and regulations were enforced, Channel 11 was the calling channel. Once contact was establish there were 23 other channels to go to. (Now 40)
My call sign back then was KDQ-8400 licensed by the FCC.

Art, this would be an opportunity to set up a MOC channel. With the new technology, some radios have a priority button that will switch to a channel designated as priority when there is activity on it. So a person could be hauling down the road, listening the the truckers, and a MOC channel that came active would switch the receiver to that frequency.

Channel 9 is still used for emergency communications, and you will find some state police monitoring that channel. So, with 9 and 19 being used, that leaves 38 other channels that could be MOC'ers.
