[HCRA] FM Simplex Activity Night

[Daniel Sullivan]

Well folks we are back.

The 6 meter activity night will fire up once again on 52.510 FM simplex at 
7:00 p.m. Mike has his vertical and beam up, I am back on 6m and I know you 
too will be there. But wait there's more! This once in a week offer comes 
not once, not twice, but three times!

We are not alone...well ok we know about UFOs but on 6m? Yes there is a 6m 
SSB net Tuesdays and Thursdays from about 8:15 p.m. until about 9:00 p.m. on 
50.130 USB. The net is based around Montgomery County, MD specifically the 
Rockville and Germantown areas. please say HI to our neighbors to the north 
in FM19 (you are FM18 if you live in most of Fairfax or all of Arlington, 
Falls Church and Alexandria. For others not sure so you have to check out 
your grid on the ARRL Grid pages. http://www2.arrl.org/locate/locate.html )

But still more....to improve this outstanding offer you get the following 
free!
