[MRCA] 51 MHz contact this afternoon

[smithab11 at comcast.net]

Make an announcement and turn the squelch off or to a low setting and you might hear Chickenland. 
We monitor 51.0 all the time while in the shop, hear sigs pop in and out all the time.

Hi Garret, 
There are 5 or 6 of us that get on 51.0 every Sunday evening at 6:30 PM local. Kutztown, PA area. You had a good signal for 2 or 3 minutes then faded out. Rig here is a RT-1439 with a AM-7239 50W amp to a Comet GP-15 antenna. I beleive you said a Range Rover with a PRC-352 near Oak Ridge,TN. Good opening while it lasted! Hope to hear you again on the next opening. Maybe from the flea market in Dayton this week-end!
