Folks,

Good NVIS* conditions on the 60-meter band have been persisting well 
into the evening.  Joe, N3IBX, and I have been enjoying pleasant QSO's 
on 5371.5 USB at around 9PM.  60-meters is a pleasant place for this 
kind of activity, as it is under utilized by the ham community.  It 
ain't rocket science either.  A low horizontal antenna is all it takes.  
A dipole is 86 feet, and you can end feed an 86-foot wire run right to 
the radio if you have a tuner.

Anyone interested in joining it at a date and time to be determined?
