[ADXA] K5UR's Propagation Advice

[w5zn at w5zn.org]

The ARRL June VHF Contest is this coming weekend. This date was not
chosen by accident or random drawing, it was selected because it falls
at the peak of the sporadic E and propagation peak for 6 meters, that
sometimes floats up to 2 meters. 

The east coast has a pretty big opening to EU this morning extending to
the western parts of the middle east. 

BE ALERT!!
