[Lowfer] setting up a grabber

Never made a contact on 6 meters, but that is another of those "weird"
bands that I have always been drawn to.

I personally am burned out on conventional amateur radio. Did the whole
WAS, DXCC thing back in the early 1990s, mostly CW. Also plenty of 2 meter
rag chewing.

But even during all that, LF always held my main interest, due to the
occasional QST article, and (more often) Wayne Green's 73 magazine, which
always seemed open to LF experimentation.

LF/VLF has always been strange enough to keep my interest. If not for that,
I might be into microwaves, as was noted today how many "microwave" junkies
are also interested in LF.

A strange brew, for sure.
