[Milsurplus] RS-6 2-way anyone?

Thu, 26 Dec 2002 23:15:48 -0500

Jack et al,

I dug my RS-6 out and got it on the air.  Had to "reason"
with the TR relay a bit.  I'm willing to give a sked a shot
on 80 or 40.  However, I'm running a G5RV at about 30 feet. 
I'm pretty sure that's not going to do Nevada on 80, and I'm
not real familiar with propagation on 40M.

Anything within 3-400 mile of Ney York City should be really
easy, though.  We might give "color-burst" crystals, 3579.5
or whatever, a shot for those close in.

As I said befor, you'll have to tolerate my lousy Morse
skills.

73,
Al
