Where can I find the WW2 battleships, and others, on June 6th? I have never 
been able to work the USS Wisconsin due to the proximity of VA to MI.

Keeping in mind that the old blind dude is totally blind, please give me 
frequencies and UTC times, instead of giving me a link to link to so I can 
wander and wonder! Thank you.

I would also like to work the USS Iowa. However, conflicting stories about 
her radio room, AKA Radio Shack, make it questionable as to whether or not 
the USS Iowa has an Amateur Radio station on said ship. The J. O'Brien has 
substituted for the USS Iowa in the recent past, out of California. I did 
work her.

So does the USS Iowa now have operating Ham Radio gear in its Radio Shack or 
will it ever?

Thank you in advance for your assistance and I hope that many of you will 
join myself, and many tens of thousands of others, on June 6th, as we say 
"Hey!" to all the Veterans, living or corporal legends, and thank them for 
our freedom.
