[ADXA] CY9C 80M CW

My 6M antenna is on the ground now but I’m going to have it up before
October.  Some F2 would be nice.

I’m not sure I’ve ever made a single contact on 60M.  I’m not terribly
interested and my rigs don’t seem friendly to that band.  I’d figure it out
if ARRL allowed it for Challenge points, but I don’t see that happening.
FCC probably doesn’t care,  but it would be difficult to comply with their
rules (single signal at a time, exactly in the center of the channel, etc.).
73,
Dennis
