[QCWA] Six Meter Question

[ve6afo at cia.com]

Hi Mike,

Yes - 6M has great aurora capabilities. Just point north and enjoy!

One thing about aurora on 6M - when operating on SSB the phase  
shifting that takes place does not make SSB signals that difficult to  
understand. Even the CW signals have less distortion than on 2M.

Aurora works good on 10m too.
