Hello Ben,

When do you want to visit on 6 SSB. I can do it here from OLLE MS K5OMS any
time during the day.

I made my first 2m SSB contact Saturday during the VHF contest, with K5ETX
in Corpus Christi over 150 miles away with only 10 watts and a minimal
antenna!

Finally got the urge to put the Folded Dipole that I bought at a swapmeet 4
or 5 years ago up on a 30' pole to see what I could hear.   Pulled the old
Icom 706MkII (new in 1997) out of the truck hooked it up and less than an
hour later I felt like I did back in '94 with the feeling of making that
first QSO all over again!

Anyone in the area active on 2m SSB ?   What about 6m SSB ?
