Just in case someone who chases 6m grids is not aware...

The K5N grid activation group currently has two operations in progress, K5N 
from DL88 and N5K from the DL79/DL89 boundry.  These
are well equipped expiditions and have the ability to work most modes 
including (in the case of K5N) EME on 6m.  They work SSB/CW any
time there is Es and work FSK441 Meteor Scatter when there is not.  EME is 
by request and they do have a limited communications access
through a telnet access.  Ping Jockey or the ON4KST 50MHz page tend to be 
where minute to minute information can be found.  K5N
normally operates on 50.165 SSB/CW and 50.265 FSK, N5K normally operates 
50.170 SSB/CW and 50.270 FSK although both can be
found on 50.125 calling CQ from time to time... sometimes at the same time 
as they rarely can hear each other.

There was a very nice Es opening to this area yesterday, K5N was S6 for most 
of an hour, N5K was S9 for over an hour.

I believe they are there until monday.
