[SixClub] Old Timer Question

[KA2AEV at aol.com]

THANK YOU
I was starting to feel really old, Not as Old as Roger tho whose memory  
seems to be long gone
Actaully got into a Conversation with Joey and mentioned it to him and had  
me wondering
if it was still on
Man I worked a bunch of stuff in Europe back in the 80's going that  route

I'm  astonished that you guys never heard of the 6m liaison frequency.

It  was the place to meet to make 6m sleds, report openings, etc.

It's  popularity waned since the Internet proliferated worldwide and took 
it's  place. It's not what it once was, that's for sure, but I understand 
some folks  in remote DX countries and grids still meet there occasionally when 
10's  open.

Now we have incredible tools and spotting clusters that were  dreams then.
