6 meter prop is funny as hell. There have been times in years past when
K5UR, who is about 25 miles SW of me, would hear things I couldn't and
then a short time later the reverse would occur (of course, I have a FAR
SUPERIOR STATION than he does) but it proves the point that the prop is
just strange. 

Same thing has occurred between me and BIG GUN Earl, N5ZM, although he
is further away from me that Rick is but not by a whole bunch! 

Enjoy this if you are on 6 meters. In a few weeks it will be gone,
sadly, so as a result you know what to do......GET ON THE AIR WORK WORK
SOME 6 METER DX. If you don't have an antenna up on 6, do like Dennis
has done with a low antenna.
