[Elecraft] 6 meters open this morning; listening 50.095 (CW)

That's telling me that six meters could be a valuable band during Field Day.  Consider having at least a dipole antenna that can to put into service.  If the E-clouds are active, participants could pick up quite a few points in a band that has lots of room.  The "skip" moves around a lot, but FD QSOs are short, so it could be a very productive band.  And you don't need power.. QRP is often as good as QRO.

Just had a quick QSO with K7CW in CN87, and I’m hearing a strong beacon from Kansas. DXmaps.com has red all over :)At times like this it pays to jump on 6 meters. 73,WayneN6KR______________________________________________________________Elecraft mailing listHome: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraftHelp: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htmPost: mailto:Elecraft at mailman.qth.netThis list hosted by: http://www.qsl.netPlease help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.htmlMessage delivered to raysills3 at verizon.net
