[50mhz] EL28 to be activated today/tomorrow

[Bill W5WVO]

Hi Chris,

EL28 is a relatively rare grid on 6 meters. As far as I know,
there is no resident 6 meter activity there, and hasn't been for
years. (There is at least one active ham in that grid, but he is
not on 6m.)

Anyone wanting to activate EL28 (and QSL!) during a period of
regular sporadic-E would be much appreciated by a lot of 6m ops. I
personally just worked a mobile who was activating this grid
square during the recent CQ contest for my own first EL28. This
was the first activation of this grid in some time, as far as I
know, during a summer contest. (Doesn't mean there might not have
been others, but I never found out about 'em.)

73,
Bill W5WVO
