QSP from K2QI, who plans to operate 6m tonight from 4U1UN. I assume they will
probably start out on 50.125, and only have 100w and a poor HF antenna. The noise
level is very high there, so be sure to make lots of noise their direction! GL and
VY 73, Lance
***********************************************************************************
Quick update: will try to operate 6m for the first stint due to several
requests. After which, I'll QSY to 20m.
