[NLRS] 6M Opening

[towers at mhtc.net]

How about just making a resonant dipole?  Simple and very small on 6 meters.  I have mine configured as a sloping dipole, high end attached near the top of my tower.  Not a barn burner, but when the band is open I make my share of contacts.

A sad state of affairs. CW beacon band loaded but I worked only one CW
station. N4VC EM66 was 559...easy. Tried to work KX5S EM14 but no joy.
Heard one SSB station (K9PPY) but he was in and gone. That was it. :<(

I am having serious trouble with the long-wire  with the overall effect
of running 5 watts to a good antenna on 6! Will troubleshoot and rebuild
tomorrow.
