[SixClub] Opening yssterday

[w9gt at comcast.net]

Band was hopping in EN71 Indiana last night as well.  Heard several east coast stations calling CQ DX...guess they were calling/working Europe, but I couldn't hear the DX.  6M, however, was open coast to coast.  Worked several stations, including a couple in NV and one CA.  Sure would like to work Utah, but seems like no one there on 6 M.  That is the last state I need for 6M WAS.

I'm presently struggling with my antennas stuck in the SE position.  (rotator problem) but when the band is really open, it doesn't keep me from making contacts all over.  I hope we can enjoy these conditions for awhile yet.  Sure is fun when 6 is open!

73,  Jack, W9GT
