[SixClub] 6M Range w/o Prop? [Was: 6M Net 52.020MHz Wed 7:30PM EST West Central FL?]

[Karl J. Zuk]

Can I suggest a possible SSB version with provisions for listening for weak signals?

In any case, congratulations. Using 6 meters is a wonderful thing.

Thanks for listening, Karl Zuk  N2KZ  FN31eh
