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

[Wayne Burdick]

If you have a K3, K3S, or KX3, with the built-in auto tuner, then any antenna is a 6 m antenna :-)

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.
