Full duplex??

Listening to a couple of eSSB users on 3.360Mhz on Saturday evening I got the distinct impression that there was a full duplex conversation in progress..
Is this an artifact of the technique and operator experience or have I missed something?

Having listened in again last evening I an certain that there is a full duplex conversation going on.
There were at least three stations in conversation and they were interrupting and speaking over each other, not just doubling.. unfortunately I could not transmit due to excessive background noise in my QTH so could not enquirer directly.

If this is you, or you know who it is, please help clear up this mystery.

That is the first I have heard of it.
I take it you meant you were listening on 3630, you wrote 3360.

Only thing I could think of is if conditions were real long, the stations you heard were close together so they might have all been listening to a remote SDRweb receiver.

Yup.. frequency was a typo.

I will try to get a recording of this to post.

Maybe you were hearing the west coast guys at the same time as the east??
