[TVARC] 6M The Magic Band

[Dennis McKinney]

Clubmates,
  I know I say it alot, but keep checking 6m for activity. Yesterday
evening 6M gave somewhat of a surprise opening to South America.   I was
able to work 16 stations between 3 countries, Argentina,  Uruguay,  Brazil
on FT8. I got started about 4:30pm local, and ended about two hours later.
I'm sure I was a little late, and likely ended to early, but what a rush.
The K2PS superstation was right in there to.  I know others were there, so
forgive me if I don't mention it.  I was using my EndFed Sloper antenna
that I use for nearly everything. Normally May and June is the  sporadic E
season, but, The Magic Band can surprise even the most seasoned operators.
So keep an ear on 50.313 FT8,  50.125 SSB, 50.110 CW.  Every morning around
7AM KZ4RR has a 6m propagation net 50.145 SSB.  It lasts about an hour and
you would be amazed a who shows up at times... Good Luck
and happy hunting...
