Hopefully conditions will be ripe for Field Day on June 24-25..

Both clubs I belong to in Houston, Tx. are planning on working 6m SSB 
& possibly even some FM if conditions are favorable.

One club bought a NEW 6 m beam (Don't know make or model, other than 
it is very big.)..

I'll post the club call's & locations next week when field day is 
closer, hopefully other groups will put more emphasis on 6 meters too 
& attract more interest in "The Magic Band"
