[SixClub] Field Day a wash on the majic band

[ki6lo at mchsi.com]

Some bad luck in Houston. 6M was really good here in SW Arkansas, especially
last night from about 7:30pm to 9:30pm. For a while it sounded like 20M during
some big contest. I worked Class 1C with a KU4AB SQ-50 Halo at 16 ft with
Ft-100D @ 100W. Worked 80 QSO's in appx 8 to 9 hours of band open time. Of
course being on top of the tallest mountain within 250 miles in any direction
helped out tremendously. 

Great FD for me on 6M!!!
