Just a final reminder to anyone with a 6m yagi and an amplifier - some REAL MAGIC is 
just about to begin ;-) The EX7MW/EX8MLT 6m DXpedition starts with their moonrise on 
Sunday!  That corresponds to moonset in the USA and is around the middle of the day. 
  They should be able to complete a JT65A mode contact with anyone having good ground 
gain and a 5 element yagi and 500w.

CNDX for 6m EME next week look excellent, and they steadily improve as the week 
progresses.  Mike and Oleg have specially selected a quiet location with excellent 
ground gain over the large lake Issyk-Kul. They will be elevating their antenna when 
the moon is higher than 20 degrees, so they can continue to operate during your 
moonrise or moonset.  Don't miss out on this great opportunity to contact a rare DXCC 
on 6m!

If you still have not tried JT65A mode yet, there are tips on how to use it for EME 
on my website:

Remember that they will always transmit in the first sequence, so you always leave 
the TX FIRST box on your JT65A screen UNchecked.  Watch for more updates and info at:

If you copy them please call them!!  Just remember to spread out with 200Hz between 
callers!  Good luck and DX to all on the Magic Band!  VY 73, Lance
