I'd love to expand into 6 meters. Problem is that most of us HF'ers  
don't know a whole lot about it, and it seems that every time we go  
there, we're stepping on someone's toes. The call frequency is like 2  
meters, and people shouldn't be using the CF to make contacts.

It's kind of late for this year, but if people who are knowledgeable  
about 6 meters, those things beyond the gentlemen's agreements and the  
"unwritten rules", and these folk would want to let me know how we  
could get a good presence on 6 meters, I'll try to incorporate a  
stratagem for getting more people on 6.
