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!!

ADXA Folks,

 

We all know Rick, K5UR is a world class op. One of the reasons is he 

keeps some of the most detailed records of anyone I know.....all paper 

records, no computer!!!

 

When Rick provides advice about 6 meter prop that may still be 

forthcoming based on his historical records, you should treat it like 

E.F. Hutton.....When he speaks, people listen. If you don't remember 

those E.F. Hutton commercials then remember this...when K5UR speaks 

about past propagation trends, you should LISTEN!!

 

For 6 meter DX, aside from working toward your 6 meter DXCC those 

contact also count for the DX Challenge Award so they are VERY 

important.

 

So, per Rick's advice stay alert over the next few weeks even if your 6 

meter station is "modest" because it can pay HUUUUGE dividends!
