[TVARC] 6m FT8 this morning

[Tony Rea]

Hi You All,

I am a new TVARC member who has a house in Fenney but am stuck in the Boston area right now. Never worked 6m before ever.

Just put up a 6M Squalo last weekend and voila! Yesterday started picking up a few as far away as 1600 miles on 50.313 FT8 but most are close by. This morning I heard a couple local FT8’s but that’s about it right now. Band went quiet.

I have to say I think I’m spoiled picking up 6M so soon after putting up an antenna!

Hope to get down there soon.

Stay safe!

Good morning all you 6m guru's.... I'm hearing very low FT8 pings on 50.313 this morning, 12:15z  8:15am..  Hope it opens again today. Yesterday was pretty awesome. I'm a BIG fan of 6m, The Majic Band..
 Post what you hear or work so everyone gets a chance...
