[Wswss] Rare CA grid active!

[kr7o at vhfdx.com]

For anyone north of Bakersfield you probably have not worked DM23.  I know 
I have been looking for that grid for 10 years.  This morning I worked 
N3IZN in DM23da (on the desert floor) on tropo on both 6 and 2m.  Chris is 
running 300 watts and 11elements on 2m and 50w into a Moxon on 6m.  Chris 
was 519-559 quality on 2m using JT65 and was 5/1 on 6m SSB.  Chris is 
working in the area and is occasionally active.   The best place to catch 
up with Chris is http://www.pingjockey.net/cgi-bin/pingtalk as he is 
primarily active on meteor scatter using FSK441, but I am sure you can 
persuade him into a SSB or CW sked.  He mentioned that he may be setting up 
on a 7000' mountain Thursday and/or Friday, so keep alert.

Thanks to Chris I only need CN71 to have worked all CA grids on 2m and only 
need CN71, CM79, 93, and DM24 on 6m!
