[ADXA] 6 and 10 meters

[Stan Ross]

I don’t have a six meter antenna either but did manage a few new ones in the Caribbean, Central and South America using my HF LPA. 

After playing around on 6, I decided to call CQ on 10M CW (at 90 watts) around 7:30 PM.  A weak but readable VK came back and we managed a decent QSO. I asked if he worked 12M, which he did. We went to 12 and his signal was a little stronger, where we continued for several more minutes. 

So like Joel often says, “Get on the air”! You never know....
