Hi All,

If any of you know, please tell me if any of the Iowa class battleships, or 
any other ships from WW2 to date, are going to be on the Ham bands for D Day 
on Saturday June 6th?

Now you know I am totally blind, so please do not send me a link that I can 
get lost in for several decades! Please send me plain text with the ship's 
name, frequencies she is operating on and the UTC times. Thank you.

I would love to work the USS Iowa, but I have been told in the past that at 
that time she did not have any Ham gear, vintage or otherwise, in her Radio 
Shack. If she is now operational, please provide me with the frequencies and 
times.

I would also love to work the USS Wisconsin. She is too close from VA to MI 
for a contact on twenty meters. I can barely hear her. Hopefully she will 
also be operating on forty meters! Again, please provide me with the 
frequencies and UTC times. Thank you.

Here is hoping for a decent propagation weekend! I hope to hear some of you 
on the HHI Saturday and Sunday Nets. Be there, or be a square wave!

Duane, W8DBF
