  You may be in a better part of the state than I am, but every
  time that I punch up the 60m channels in the Portland area it's
  "All Quiet on the Western Front"  (except for the Navy's 850-Hz
  encrypted RTTY signals, of course).  Neither the State of
  Oregon Emergency Management nor its equivalent in Washington
  County (the most active in ham communications) have 60m nets
  and may not even have 60m capability.  Wanna' make a sked?
