[MRCA] M&S Today 1/6/26

[Rhett Isley]

I was on and weakly heard in the Milford, PA SDR. A couple of folks
mentioned hearing a weak signal which I assumed was me but that was all.

No contacts on 60M and no one heard on my local setups: Rybakov Vertical on
the MSR-8000 (PA died today) nor the Sunair GSB-900SC/R and a 148' EFRW.

Will attempt again on Thursday if at home.

73,
Rhett KB4HG
